Does this world look as if you’ve imagined it? Are the lilacs in bloom, crops bountiful in the field, a glint in every child’s eye and abundance in the store houses, enough to share with all who may be in need? Does news of the day reflect your concept of social justice, coming collective enlightenment and hope in the opportunity provided to all, no matter their circumstance? Is there mutual respect shared between government and its peoples as representatives seek the best course of action regardless of personal benefit or business impact? Is there global unity or a promise of shared international commitment where all shall live in understanding and harmony? Is the present environment truly depicted and honestly reflected in scripture could things possibly be that bad?
The Bible has yet to be wrong and it states emphatically without equivocation the things which will soon unfold. If in fact you do not believe in the eschatology of Bible prophecy then your hopeful view of world unity solidifies your susceptibility to one of the greatest deceptions ever perpetrated upon mankind.
The antichrist will come claiming to be Messiah and fool all those hopeful hearts yearning for global unity. Jesus even foretold that although He was not received when He came in the name of the Father that another will come in his own name and he will be received. The world will rejoice as they welcome this character, thus allowing them to deny Jesus the True Lord of Lords and King of Kings. They will feel justified in all their mockery, derision and historical wickedness. The Bible depicts the antichrist as a rider on a white horse without any arrows in his quiver who will conquer many through “peace”. This is such an unusual concept it should immediately arouse suspicion in the minds of all who believe themselves Christians. This is how he will succeed in the deception, portraying himself as a peaceful, loving, savior who will disarm the world by fooling them into believing he is the predicted messiah. He will perform miracles, evoking peaceful movements and binding many to agreements without justifiable reliance. He will be the false image of an anointed character preaching freedom from the accountability to God’s Word, in fact proclaiming himself god. He will blaspheme the One True God and those who may not be fooled into worshiping his effigy will be forced by penalty of cruelty, poverty and death.
This world is on the rim of the eternity’s precipice, teetering between righteousness and sin. Rapture is a reasonable argument seeing this precarious wobble. Losing the believing Christian population in an instant would plunge this delicately balanced civilization into the turmoil from which it is restrained by our indwelling Holy Spirit of God. Absent that collective faithful population there will be no voice left to call the unholy to reason. Praise be to God that even then He will send angelic and human messengers on a mission of grace to proclaim the coming Kingdom, the need for repentance and the offer of salvation. All who call upon the name of Lord shall be saved. What a mighty God we serve. Be ready, be watchful, be filled with courage and love. King Jesus awaits His bride. Amen.
