"...And for this cause God shall send them a strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: that they all might be damned who believe not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness." II Thessalonians 2:11.

This verse of scripture is not very popular in our modern day " jewdeo-christian" culture. Even though these words are found in scripture, even though they are " New Testament" words, by the hand of Paul himself, they simply have no place in the way today's pulpit whores portray the " loving God" and the " loving Christ".

Todays weak minded and spineless apostles do not like to acknowledge the "other side" of Yahweh God. The very idea that God would intentionally send a deception, with the very intent being to trap and damn people in this deception, simply cannot and WILL NOT be allowed to rear it's head in their theologies and philosophies.

The apostasy of this day is so widespread and so completely seized upon by jewdeo-christianity, that when an outdated concept such as " judgement" or "condemnation" comes to light, it is looked upon with abject horror, like some alien anomaly appearring in their midst for the very first time.

And yet, there it is, in the holy scriptures. A most inconvienient truth, yet truth nonetheless.

To prove that the above stated verse isn't some randomly appearring anomaly, let us read I Kings 22. As you read this chapter you will see the righteous king of Judah, Jehoshaphat, allowing himself to become entangled into an alliance with the utterly worthless king of Israel, Ahab; probably for the sake of brotherly or racial unity.They are going to battle together against the Syrians which had taken Ramoth Gilead. Jehoshaphat asked to enquire of Yahweh first however. At this a host of Baal worshipping prophets begin with one voice to encourage them to go and conquer.But Jehoshaphat sensed something wrong, and asked specifically for a prophet of Yahweh.

Now there were prophets of the Everliving God in Israel at that time, persecuted and hounded by Ahab's government, the most notable being Elijah the Tishbite. However there was only one prophet in hand, Micaiah, son of Imlah. When Micaiah was brought forth, the officer warned him to prophesy as the other prophets had.

Ahab bemouned even sending for him, saying that he never prophesied good but only bad about him. Imagine that.

Upon first entering the chaotic scene, Micaiah did speak as the other prophets. Yet his words fairly dripped with facetiousness, and his smart ellecked tone slapped Ahab in the face. Feeling insulted, Ahab charges Micaiah to tell the truth. Micaiah's words are deafening:

"I saw Yahweh sitting on His throne, and all the host of heaven standing by Him on His right hand and on His left. And Yahweh said, who shall persuade Ahab that he may go up and fall at Ramoth Gilead? And one said on this manner, and another said on that manner. And there came forth a spirit, and stood before Yahweh and said, I will persuade him.

And Yahweh said unto him, Wherewith? And he said, I will go forth, and I will become a lying spirit in the mouths of all his prophets. And He said, Thou shalt persuade him, and prevail also: go forth and do so. Now, therefore, behold, Yahweh hath put a lying spirit in the mouth of all these prophets..." :19-23.

Oh my! Why would our loving, caring, compassionate Creator God do such a thing? Simple. To kill the wicked. It really isn't anymore complicated than that.Yahweh hates evil! He cannot bear it, He will not overlook it, and He will destroy it.

It's all in the book.

A word should be added about Jehoshaphat. Even though he was a righteous king, observing Yahweh's Law, his misguided alliance with the pagan Ahab very nearly got him destroyed as well. Allying yourself with wickedness and sin, always puts you in harms way, no matter what your intentions.

So we have here a definate pattern in which God Himself will deceive people with the very intention of destroying them. Those who scream in shock that He would not,really don't know Him very well, if at all.

Now, let's return to II Thessalonians 2. In the beginning of this chapter Paul makes it clear that he is referring to the last days before the literal return of Yahoshua the Christ to Earth; but that He will not return until first there is a falling away. Let's look at this falling away.

In I Timothy 4:1, Paul states," Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith,[ that would be the falling away], giving heed to seducing spirits and doctrines of devils. Here is that pattern again, Yahweh purposely sending deception to lure people to their own destruction. Now let us continue this into II Timothy 3. Paul tells Timothy that in the last days [ when people are falling away from the true faith under delusion by seducing spirits to follow satanic doctrines] perilous times shall come.Paul then gives Timothy a complete shopping list of sinful characteristics these people will have, but then shockingly inserts," having a form of godliness , but denying the power thereof." :5

These ungodly, immoral, sin laden, fallen away people, are religious. They have departed from the faith, but they have a religion. They are giving heed to seducing spirits, but they have a religion. They are teaching and being taught doctrines of devils, but they have a religion.

So what is this delusion sent by Yahweh Himself?

It is a religion, a form of godliness yet without power, strength, potency.

In Mark 13, Christ is giving His disciples a description of the last days before His return and the end of the age.This description culminates with"...for false Christs and false prophets shall arise, and shall show signs and wonders, TO SEDUCE, if it were possible, even the elect." :22

Now in order for the very elect to come so close to being seduced, this delusion, this apostasy would have to sound so much like the real thing, only a passing glance would not expose it for what it truly was. It would take a people TRULY seeking the will of the Father to uncover the real from the counterfeit.

It would have to sound, christian.

"Many will say to Me in that day,Lord, Lord, have we not prophecied in Thy Name? and in Thy Name have cast out devils and in Thy Name done many wonderful works?

"And then will I profess unto them, I NEVER KNEW YOU: depart from me, ye that work iniquity."Matt.7:21-22

Do you see this yet? This apostasy, this delusion sent by Yahweh Himself for the express purpose of decieving people to their own destruction, will appear christian. These damned shall go around using the name[ or perhaps rather, A NAME] of Christ. They would appear to have power, yet Paul said that they would actually be denying the power of Yahweh.

Antinomian?

So exactly what do you know about what you believe? How sure are you? Remember, the fallen ones will be pretty self assured. Are you on the right path, or are you decieved into a clever satanic counterfeit, meant to lead you to hell?

It is time to examine things much more closely that we might know for sure who are master truly is.
