The Coming False Messiah

The Coming False Messiah - By Pastor Mike Taylor - https://pastormiketaylor.blogspot.com/2021/07/the-coming-false-messiah.html 38 And ye have not his word abiding in you: for whom he hath sent, him ye believe not. 39 Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me. 40 And ye will not come to me, that ye might have life. 41 I receive not honour from men. 42 But I know you, that ye have not the love of God in you. 43 I am come in my Father's name, and ye receive me not: if another shall come in his own name, him ye will receive.". (John 5:38-43) The passage where this scripture is quoted in John , recounts the words of Jesus as He attempted to persuade the people of His day of who He really was. All through thegospels, especially the gospel of John, Jesus shows them miracle after miracle and gives them reason after reason to believe on the “One whom God hath sent”. But as any bible student knows, the people were blind and deaf to the reality that was standing rightin front of them. The people were looking for a warrior king, much like their ancestor King David, to unite and restore the nation of Israel to its former glory and remove the standing Roman army from their land. Israel was sub-servant to the power of the Roman empire and their hopes were pinned on the Laws given to Moses and could not see past the rituals that shadowed the comingMessiah. To them, Messiah meant a deliverer King, a fighting man with near supernatural ability to defeat the Romans and expel them from Israel. Who was this carpenter’s son that thought of Himself so highly that he spoke near blasphemy in their minds andin their hearing? This was not what they envisioned. They did not want a poor man of lowly means that had no power of making war. Here was a Man who fit every prophecy of a coming Messiah to the letter, something that the religious authorities and the people had been waiting for over 400 years andknew every last detail of His coming and His family ancestry, based on the clear words of the Torah and the prophets, and they didn’t recognize Him, nor accept Him. If you look back at scripture, to when Jesus was risen from the grave and appeared to the apostles and many others, even the men who followed Jesus for 3.5 years still didnot understand the reason for the coming of the Messiah. As Jesus spoke with them, just before He ascended to heaven, the disciples asked Him in Acts 1, "4 And, being assembled together with them, commanded them that they should not depart from Jerusalem, but wait for the promise of the Father, which, saith he, ye have heardof me. 5 For John truly baptized with water; but ye shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost not many days hence. 6 When they therefore were come together, they asked of him, saying, Lord, wilt thou at this time restore again the kingdom to Israel? 7 And he said unto them, It is not for you to know the times or the seasons, which the Father hath put in his own power. 8 But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and untothe uttermost part of the earth. 9 And when he had spoken these things, while they beheld, he was taken up; and a cloud received him out of their sight.” (Acts 1:4-9) At this time, even these men who lived, ate, and slept near the King of kings while He was a man on earth, still did not recognize His mission. Not yet, but they would whenthe day of Pentecost had come and they were filled with the Holy Spirit and the ability to speak out boldly of who Jesus Christ really was, what His mission had been, and revelation of what He had accomplished, being salvation to the Jew first, then to theGentiles, as Paul eventually took the message to the Gentile nations in Asia Minor and the world. From that humble beginning, the Word of God has spread like wildfire to cover all the earth. Men have died to speak God’s Word and the Word has flourished over every nation. If you read the New Testament, coupled with the Old Testament prophecies of the coming Messiah, the 4 Gospel accounts give you everything you need to know to make a rationaldecision that Jesus Christ is the Messiah and the Son of the Living God Almighty. But why is there still doubt and a disbelieving world that rejects this core of our very being of the Christian heart? Because just as God is working full time, over time, andevery second of the day to win men’s hearts to God and justify them because of His Son’s sacrifice in blood, His adversary, Satan the devil, is working just as hard to deceive, to lie, to tempt men to give into their sinful nature and deny the need for a Savior.When Thomas doubted that Jesus was risen, but believed when he saw Him with his own eyes, what did Jesus say? Read the surrounded verses that come to this one thought about faith, John chapter 20: "26 And after eight days again his disciples were within, and Thomas with them: then came Jesus, the doors being shut, and stood in the midst, and said, Peace be unto you. 27 Then saith he to Thomas, Reach hither thy finger, and behold my hands; and reach hither thy hand, and thrust it into my side: and be not faithless, but believing. 28 And Thomas answered and said unto him, My Lord and my God. 29 Jesus saith unto him, Thomas, because thou hast seen me, thou hast believed: blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed. 30 And many other signs truly did Jesus in the presence of his disciples, which are not written in this book: 31 But these are written, that ye might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing ye might have life through his name.” (John 20:26-31) We who live in the last days of the age of grace, believe by faith and not by sight. We believe because the Holy Spirit has revealed this truth to us in our hearts and mindsand by faith, we have accepted Jesus as our Savior and Lord of our life. In our hearts, Jesus reigns supreme, (or should be) and we follow Him and His footsteps and model His behavior while on earth. You and I embrace the truth that Jesus is the Son of God,born of a virgin, lived and ministered on earth 3.5 years, and was rejected of His brethren, the Jewish people. We believe that He was falsely accused, beaten, and crucified on a Roman cross and buried in a rich man’s tomb…But the most glorious of it all,is we believe that He arose again 3 days later and is now, as I type, seated at the right Hand of Power, of Almighty God our Father, waiting to return for his Bride, the church, then 7 years later to set up a glorious 1000 year reign of peace, finally uponthe earth. If you want to know who Jesus Christ is, and who He was while on earth, my reader you can get no better explanation than to read the book of John of the four gospels beginningthe New Testament. We do not cling to the law, as the law condemned us, but Jesus has delivered us from the penalty of the law and it’s requirements of sacrifice, by being the sinless sacrifice required by God to forgive each and everyone of us our sins thatwe cannot help but commit. So why did Jesus come? To supply a way back to the Father in Heaven and have His blood cover our sins, each and everyone who believes by faith. FALSE MESSIAH COMING Down through the last two thousand years, there have been many false prophets and many who have proclaimed to be the long awaited messiah the unbelieving world has waitedfor and especially the Jewish people, who to this day, do not believe in Jesus Christ, save a few blessed of God to receive their spiritual sight and believe in their Messiah. But by and large, the nation of Israel and the Jewish people are still in unbeliefand waiting for that warrior king to deliver them from their enemies. At this time we could go into the history lessons of the dispersion of the Jews from 70 AD up to this modern day era, but for brevity sake, we know that the nation of Israel has been reformedagain, against all odds in 1948, but is besieged by enemies from all borders of their country who wish nothing more than to destroy them and push them into the Mediterranean Sea. There is no peace when you speak of Palestinians and any words spoke of real peace is an utter lie. You know it, and the wise person who believes his Bible, knows it aswell. . There has been prophecy, after prophecy concerning the coming “lawless one” who will make a treaty with Israel for 7 years. But what peace treaty will this man confirm with Israel that is existence now? I have seen attempt after attempt by past American presidents to bring a so-called peace process to Israel and their neighbors to ultimate failure. Even past President Trumppushed for peace in the Middle East with Abrahamic Accords. I read about the push for a two state solution, which on the Palestinian side is another attempt at lying words to mask their true intent and that is to destroy Israel and its Jewish heritage. Thatpush began in year 2013 of June to last 9 months and to bring to the table a set of clear objectives for a permanent peace deal that is seen at this J-post link: http://www.jpost.com/Diplomacy-and-Politics/US-official-Permanent-peace-agreement-could-be-reached-by-April-336734 It starts the article with these words: “WASHINGTON - US Secretary of State John Kerry hopes to narrow differences between Israelis and Palestinians in peace talks this week that are intended to guide the sidestoward a deal in April, a senior State Department official said on Tuesday.” Now I recall from my Bible study that there will be a peace treaty that will be signed when the Anti-Christ is revealed and I’m not saying that this is that peace treaty,but the framework is there. Remember from your reading of God’s Word what the real peace treaty will do, when Daniel the prophet wrote in Daniel chapter 9: “And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreadingof abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate.” (Daniel 9:27) Now many have postulated in times past, that Obama would be the Anti-Christ and I have not bought into that theory YET…..but it has come to my attention and I’m studyingit’s source by doing online searches, and it would do well with each of us to search and line up events that are forming right now in our political and the world’s economic woes. I would not be amazed if Obama is the one behind advising our mentally challengedcurrect POTUS and trying still to bring this country down to ruin and set up a One World Government. ANNOUNCING THE COMING AL-MAHDI It is reported that there is a parchment found in a clay jar, outside a nuclear reactor announcing the coming of the 12th Imam, known as Al Mahdi. From all indications thatMahdi and the Anti-Christ have striking similar prophecies associated with them in Christianity and well as Islam. I don’t put any stock in Islam’s prophecies, but if a section of a particular people believe it, then that’s dangerous and could lead the worldinto more perilous times. I ask that each of you read and search for the following discovery that purports to identify who this 12th Imam is, known as the Al Mahdi. The Ayatollahs in Iran are in firm belief that the man is alive and well today. This discoveryis known as the Arak Codex #190001 and it correlates with the long held belief that the Muslim world has believed for a long time. In this Codex, It describes this man who is believed to the be the Al Mahdi…I take this quote from the intenet at this link BarackObama FulfillsThe Occult Signs of the Coming Islamic Mahdi | Christian News | Before It's News (beforeitsnews.com) Quoting just a portion of this article: “He is half black, half white. He is tall and strides with a lope. He possesses dead eyes and prominent ears. His background is both obscure and exotic. He is persuasivelyeloquent and is adept at saying one thing while doing another. His head swivels from side to side when addressing the multitudes, as if reading from prepared texts no doubt lowered from on high and inscribed by the Lord or one of his angels. He gives the distinctimpression of being a man-child. He is supremely confident and exudes a certain boyish charm many find irresistible. He is devoted to popular sports involving holes and nets as emblems of ensnaring. He bows frequently in false humility, cajoling the high andmighty of the earth, yet brooks no objection to his will when dissent is offered. He is to be found in many different places from one day to another. He is surrounded by loyal minions, many of whom appear to be imbeciles, who do his bidding without questionor scruple. He occupies the seat of power.” Let me be very clear about this, for there are those who cannot bring themselves to confront the evidence of the Twelfth Imam’s uncloaking that I, privy to the discoveryof the mystical codex through means I am forbidden to reveal, now set before them. All his actions are directed toward igniting the flames that wait to engulf the world. He diligently undermines the laws, security and prosperity of the people he ostensiblyrepresented, and turned one against the other, sowing discord among the populace. He betrayed his friends and allies and renders them vulnerable to international predators. He sponsored and supported warlike groups and aggressive regimes that seek world hegemony.He is an undeclared enemy of the Jewish people and the Jewish state. He is a great friend to Islam in its march toward imposing a caliphate upon unsuspecting nations. He welcomes the black flag and the yellow flag into the sanctum of domestic authority, distributingoffice among his Muslim acolytes. He smiles upon the ayatollahs and signs agreements that facilitate their holy designs to kindle universal violence and establish their god’s kingdom on earth. He has been schooled at the feet of prophets and sages and learned from the masters of canon and creed. He is the repository of sacred teachings and potent incantations,and is adept at uttering sonorous phrases that please as they befuddle. He is the embodiment of consecrated, numinous and venerable doctrine. He is no longer hidden but exults among us in all his glory. He is the bringer of chaos and the last days. He willinaugurate a new world order. Doubters and skeptics must give way. The Twelfth Imam has returned, confirmed in his exaltation by innumerable tokens and crests and auguries. Devastation will precede himand resurrection will surely follow in his wake. The infidel shall be destroyed, destroyed utterly, and the believer shall rise from the smoldering ruins in triumph and gladness of heart. All this shall come to pass for it is written: He is the Mahdi” Notice the similarities of a past president of these United States and the description of the Al Mahdi? But what makes me wonder, and should you, are the prophecies comingfrom Muslim writings pertaining to this Al Mahdi. Now this could be a ruse, and I’m fully aware of that, as where did this Codex come from? Did it come from an archaeological discovery, or a planted discovery? What I read,is that nobody outside of the rulers of Iran know of its existence, save a few that have examined it on pain of death to its revealing to the media. But the amazing thing is that prior writing of the Sahih Muslim Book under various book numbers and pages,all talk about this coming Mahdi in the same context and description. It would also be a point of interest to understand that when the church is removed, that the dominate religion on earth will be ISLAM mixed with false Christianity via the Catholic Churchand the blend will be called Chrislam. What better way for Satan to destroy Israel than for the Al Mahdi and the Anti-Christ to be one and the same? THE COMING MAN OF SIN, FALSE MESSIAH What of this coming man of sin? The Bible deals with him, as quoted from Daniel chapter 9, and Paul spoke of this false messiah in 2nd Thessalonians 2: 3 “Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first (harpazo, Rapture), and that man of sin be revealed, the sonof perdition; 4 Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God. 5 Remember ye not, that, when I was yet with you, I told you these things? 6 And now ye know what withholdeth that he might be revealed in his time. 7 For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way. 8 And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming: 9 Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders,” (2nd Thessalonians 2:3-9) Jesus spoke of this time in Jewish history future, in Matthew 24:15-16: "When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand:) Then let them which be in Judaea flee into the mountains:" OK, SOME LIBERTY HERE What has happened up to this point? Remember when I said that the Jews were looking for a warrior king that would deliver them from their enemies and give them the peaceand safety they longed for, and restore the glory of the Kingdom of Israel once more? Thinking out loud and taking scripture for what it says, what if a powerful leader of the world’s lone superpower with military might that was unsurpassed in its abilityto wage war were to bring a promise of peace and safety to Israel by making a treaty with a framework of two nations living alongside one another “in safety and security”…Sound familiar? Does to me, as that is the talking point of the U.S. involvement in pushingfor a so called peace in the Middle East for the last 40+ years. It has been all elusive, but this latest push for a two state solution is being by any means available whether through use of extortion, bribery, or threat of economic sanctions….not againstthe Palestinians, but against Israel. Some believe and we watch and wait, that Obama will be made the Secretary General of the U.N. Or get a third term in the future as POTUS....can that be? SIGNS IN THE HEAVENS I had a sister just ask me about these past Blood Moons and the Tetrads that came on God’s Holy Days of Passover and Tabernacles in the past and the significance of thoseevents. As I have written before and it seems many ministers are picking up on it with their own variation, these signs seen in our heavens, based on previous blood moons in the past, have dealt with the nation of Israel and the Jewish race. Let’s take theclues that we have covered so far and recap with some suppositions: -a push for a Peace Treaty in Israel scheduled for the last 40 years -a transformation of a Republic into something that none of us recognize, the USA. Happening right now~!! -Iranian belief that the AlMahdi is on the scene and alive today and the man is pushing for a Muslim Caliphate to rule the world. -the discovery of this Arak Codex #190001 and it’s description of the AlMahdi -the long held belief by the Muslims of who the Mahdi will be written in the Sahih Muslim books. -Signs of the blood moons that came to Israel and has been associated with Israel in every instance of past Blood Moon Tetrads, with the first sign coming in April 2015of that year coinciding with this “peace treaty” that Kerry and Obama were pushing. -the suspicions of many people of who this past president really is, as we know nothing about him, except he reads a good teleprompter. -our past president and his Muslim roots that pander to the nation of Islam but slanders anything that smacks of Christianity. Oh, he says he’s a Christian, but the firstlaw of Islam is to lie to the infidel until he be subdued. Am I saying that Obama is the Anti-Christ? Not yet, I’m not, but If he’s not, then he is paving the way for the real deal. Everything the man does is Anti-American and designedat destroying our Republic and he is totally against Israel, no matter what he says. But let’s just for conjecture and theory decide Obama is the real deal, based on the above reasons, what may be Israel’s response in light of the opening verse of this messagespoken by Jesus? I propose that the media and the art world has done everything in its power to build an aura around this man and christen him, the new messiah, in word, print and art renderings. Israel has longed for a “savior” or someone to deliver themfrom their enemies. Someone to give them a sense of peace and security that they have prayed for the last 73 years to arrive. Would they embrace a “false messiah” who gives them a false sense of security? Is the Pope Catholic? They want to believe, they are primed for it, and they just might accept a deal with the devil thinking that this is their long awaited “warrior king”…to give them whatthey have desired, their land without fear, a new Jewish Temple of worship on Mt. Moriah, the Temple Mount and a 7 year treaty of lies that claim peace. See Israel has been blinded that their Messiah was a suffering servant come to take away their sins (astemple sacrifices did that, in their mind), but a King David, fully man not necessarily divine, that would deliver them to regain what they had lost, the splendor of Solomon’s reign. Only when the prophecy spoken by Jesus in Matthew 24 comes to fruition aboutthe abomination of desolation standing in the temple claiming to be God, that they will know they have made a pact with the devil. Then this false messiah will attempt to destroy everything Jewish and the nation of Israel will be trampled upon and the restof the world subjugated to his dictatorship. TWO CHOICES OF TRUE MESSIAH, or a false messiah It comes down to this. Which one will you follow? Will you follow the true Messiah, Jesus Christ, the Son of God, or will you follow a charlatan with the title of “new messiah”. He may be the President of the USA, he may not. He will be the Anti-Christ, or by implication, instead of Christ. He will also, most likely be Muslim and the embraced Al Mahdi by association, or what he will stir up so they believe he is their leader to bringthe reign of the Caliphate come to pass and Chrislam as the universal religion. The world will be ripe for deception. Carnage will be the name of the game, as many people will die…maybe even you. It will happen when suddenly, many people from every nationthat has a true Christian population disappear and there is no sane explanation from anyone left to sort out the details of the event. If you have read all the surrounding reasons of what is happening during the next few years, then you will have to decideif the events are close time wise and if they are reasonable. (Note that Obama is still on the scene and he has not vanished into the background, but keeps speaking in a political arena). The false messiah could be on your TV screen at any given evening speakinglies to the unsuspecting masses of disbelievers. With signs becoming more prominent and exploding on your news cast, night after night, then any sane person would have to say….the Anti-Christ, the Al Mahdi, the lawless one, is alive and well today in our time. Who do you put your trust in? Do you have to see with your eyes, and hear with your ears to believe? Remember what Jesus said above. “Blessed are those who have not seen,but believe”. How will you find the true Messiah? By faith you will see Him, feel Him, and His Holy Spirit will call you in a still small voice to repent of what you have been doing. Turn around and fall into the arms of Jesus Christ, my Lord who wishes onlyto save you and deliver you from the wrath to come. Call upon His name and with remorse and tears, call out “Jesus save me”….you know what, He will do as you ask. 16 “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. 18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. 19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. (John 3:16-19) 8 “But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach; 9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. 10 For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. 11 For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed. 12 For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him. 13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.” (Romans 10:8-13) This is Pastor Mike Taylor, praying for you.
