“But evil men and imposters will grow worse and worse, deceiving and being deceived” (2 Timothy 3:13).

Today there is deception and false news everywhere you look. It seems the Devil is out to destroy lives and nations through deception, fake news, subversion and apostasy in the church. If you call yourself a Christian and can’t see the deception surrounding you then you probably don’t read your Bible, and if you do—you haven’t received Christ and acquired the Holy Spirit who opens the eyes of those who are believers in Christ.

The way things are going even those who are spiritually blind are able to see that something isn’t quite right these days; what with corruption in high places, (governments and the Church) earthquakes, famine, pestilences, incurable diseases and apostasy. Satan has his minions out there in the world to confuse and propagate false doctrines and/or plain old fashioned falsehoods. That’s why we shouldn’t lean on our own understanding or those of heretical men who don’t know or understand Scripture, leading others into perilous folly.

The following is a case in point.

I recently met with a man who has written several books and is hoping to get the last one made into a movie. I was introduced to him by a friend whom I had led to Christ last winter. Because the writer told him he was a Doctor of Divinity my friend thought I should meet him.

Not knowing the man’s last name I couldn’t do a background check on him so I didn’t know what to expect. In spite of that, I arranged to meet with this stranger in a local restaurant. At first I had my doubts since I’ve encountered phonies in the past.  But then I thought, perhaps God had set up this impromptu meeting as a, divine appointment so I decided to investigate.

What’s the worst that could happen? I might even get to share the gospel with this stranger and who knows where that might lead. Funny, as I refer to him as a stranger in this article, I found him to be very strange indeed. From the moment I laid eyes on the man I knew what kind of writer he was and also the validity of referring to himself as a so-called doctor of divinity.

After introductions he gave me a copy of his latest 129 page book—the one he wants made into a movie.  The name of the book is Atlantis, the Last Testament. On the cover was a rendering of wizard with a peeked, conical hat, your typical white hair, beard and ponytail.

A pod of Porpoises leaping out of the water were depicted along the bottom. On the left of the cover was a naked woman with long flowing hair pirouetting toward the top of the cover page holding a gem stone in her right hand upward toward heaven. On the left side of the man’s head was depiction of the earth with a book floating above it emblazoned with a strange symbol. The symbol looked like some sort of maze. The book, I surmised was the Last Testament.

After showing him my movie scrapbook and giving him the first ten pages of my manuscript and first five pages of my screenplay I let him talk. Afterward, I told him that I was a born-again Christian, who believed the Bible, and had been studying it for over forty years and leading others to Christ – any and everywhere.

I also shared my abbreviated testimony with him, during which he never mentioned the Doctor of Divinity part of his life, I saw his countenance fall and he clammed up completely. He knew he was fighting a losing battle with me in trying to impress.

Our little meeting ended and we each went our own way. I left hopeful that in reading the introduction to my evangelical book manuscript or in taking heed to my rebukes he would repent of his foolish ways or at least begin to seek God’s face.

Listen to what he says in the Foreword of his little booklet Atlantis the last Testament.

An eminent scholar has said of “The Last Testament” that this is a truly inspirational work that could only been done by a Master. This work no doubt will help to bring understanding and realism to the current Bible.”

And blah, blah blah…I wonder how much he paid for the commentaries…

Next, the Foreword says, and I quote, “Scholars and laymen alike have found the Bible’s contents to be unfounded and ineffectual to be remedied by fallible minds…” (What this man is saying is that he is the only one able to understand these things.) Sounds like Joseph Smith or Charles Taze Russell, or a Howard Rodney Brown to me. This deceived writer further postulates that, “The attitudes and released emotions of the Atlantician people caused the deluge…” Whew!

“They profess to know God, but in works they deny Him, being abdominal, disobedient, and disqualified for every good work” (Titus 1:6).

By the way, my most recent article, “Islam and Other Crazy Cults” brought a  great deal of response from the readers. All but one was positive and at least two others were from former Mormons who thanked me for exposing this cult. As a matter of fact one was the daughter of an elder who sent me an unbelievable video exposing them for what they are. This woman found the information about my article on Face book where I always post and where my latest articles can be found.

I sent the information to my dear friend and Christian brother Scott F. who’s a Messianic Jew and he in turn sent a video back to me and various others concerning the Mormon cult.

This revealing video Temple of the God Makers can be seen on the Internet. There is deception everywhere you look and it’s imperative that as Christians study the holy Scriptures earnestly to show ourselves approved.

Jesus said, “I am the Way, the Truth and the Life and no man comes to the Father but by me.”

Christianity is defined as a relationship with Jesus Christ. All other faiths are man-made religions, including Islam.

Every day of Ramadan (the holy month for Islam) is marked by violence somewhere in the world, with Western Civilization and Christians being the main target.  Not only do they kill and harm others, but devout Muslims are into self flagellation, where groups of men inflict punishment on themselves to the point where blood puddles in the street.

This reminds me of the times of the prophet Elijah, when the worshipers of Baal tried to get their god’s attention by mutilating themselves. It didn’t work then, and they paid the ultimate price – death.  Although many Muslims claim Islam is a peaceful religion, they killed over 1,639 men, women and children during Ramadan in order to appease their god Allah.

Surprisingly, most Christian countries still don’t understand that no amount of evangelizing is going to change the Muslim religion anytime soon, regardless of how timid and fearful Americans and others are of them.  And even evangelism did work, it is already too little too late. God Himself, in the form of Jesus Christ, has to appear to them in visions to get their crazed attention.

As a Judeo-Christian nation, we should have given each and every immigrant a copy of the Bible and an invitation to Christianity. After all, it is because of the Christian faith that these people were welcomed into our benevolent country. Even so, they want nothing to do with Christianity and want to dominate our country by Sharia law, in spite of not having contributed anything to our way of life. And to further complicate things, some of them refuse to work for others because it’s against their religion! Thank God our president refused to host the yearly Ramadan dinner at the White House this year.

There are other religions and cults in our country, but they don’t go about killing others as a way of worship (at least not yet).  Mormonism was started by a delusional man named John Smith, to whom an angel named Moroni appeared, telling him to dig up some golden plates in his back yard that would explain more fully (his idea) word of god.  Remember, Satan can appear as an angel of light. With a name like Moroni (that John Smith gave the angel) Satan almost gave himself away.

The Jehovah Witnesses believe that a certain hermit named Charles Taze Russell was inspired to write a new bible (all by himself) which he called the New World Translation. I can assure you that just because you know God’s name (Jehovah), it will not guarantee you a place in heaven.  The Bible clearly says that Jesus is the Way, the Truth and the Life. The original Word of God also says, “There is no other name under heaven, given among men whereby you must be saved.” And consider this other verse, “This is the record, that God has given us His only Son, He that has the Son has life; he that has not the Son, has not life, but the wrath of God abides on him.”

The many East Indian gods, including the blue faced Shiva, are a confounding array of rat and cow worshipers.  We can see the devastating results by the way they live in their third world country.

Voodoo reigns on the island of Haiti.  Is it any wonder they too are such a backward society?

Catholicism began with wealthy landowners paying for the privilege to become priests in order to minister to the surfs who worked their lands. Talk about bribery and corruption. Many, being human, are corrupt pedophiles to this very day. Still they continue to thrive.

That isn’t to say that Protestants are exempt from corruption. Indeed, apostasy is permeating the church more and more as the end approaches. Snake handlers, laughing ministries, and phony money grubbing TV preachers have so-called “Christian ministries.” All you need is charisma and/or a crazy hairdo. I could go on and on, but there should be enough said here for you to mull over.

Indeed, this must be the terminal generation since biblical prophecy is being played out before our eyes on a daily basis. It’s becoming obvious that we are the generation of believers who will be transported out of here in the rapture before all hell hits the fan.

I often get videos at the library for the week, and especially like true stories and documentaries. The librarian who had been reading a book about witches the week before was at the counter again today.  I wondered how I might approach her with the gospel, but I needn’t have been concerned since the Bible says the Holy Spirit will give us the right words to say at the right time if we let Him. Indeed, God had arranged for me to find a video I was looking for about a man who claimed to have had conversations with God.

This man’s book was a huge hit with the reading public and had been made into a movie a while back. I had seen it a few years ago and wanted to see it again to see what it was that interested people so much.  He never mentioned Jesus or salvation throughout the entire movie. Although I had been looking for it for a number of weeks I couldn’t find it until just recently. When the librarian saw that I had it to check out she recommended it highly since she had just viewed it herself. It seems the librarian likes to read about and explore the supernatural. She is obviously a seeker of spiritual things and hopefully truth. You see she’s a tree hugging Unitarian, as is the author of the book Conversations with God.

I know spiritual warfare when I see it, and I am determined to share the Word of God with her the next time I see her. I know His Word won’t come back to Him void and perhaps another lost soul will be saved.
