Why The World Hates Jesus
s we head further into end time waters, one of
the most amazing things you will see occurring right
before your very eyes is how much the world really hates
Jesus and everything that He stands for.
As you will see in the verses I will
give you below, not do only many in the world not like Jesus,
but they actually hate Him. The first verse I will give you
below is coming directly from Jesus Himself and He specifically
tells us in this verse that the world is literally going to
hate Him.
Not only did the world hate Him and put him to death within
three and half years after He officially started His miracle
ministry, but this hatred for Him has continued on and it is
still continuing to this very day. However, there is something
different with the hatred and disdain that we are now seeing
for our personal Lord and Savior.
My brothers and I are from the United States. We believe
that our country to date is the greatest and most powerful
Christian nation that has ever been formed on the face of this
earth. The reason our country is still the world's greatest and
biggest superpower that the world has ever seen is due to the
anointing that God the Father Himself has placed upon this
country as a result of our early Christian foundations that
were initially established and placed in Him.
God Himself is the One who has made this country as great as
it has turned out to be. Jesus tells us that the end will not
come until His gospel has been preached to the whole world. And
in order for that to be able to happen, God had to make sure
that there was at least one strong and powerful nation
operating under His anointing that would be able to work and
operate with the material blessings that He would bestow upon
them so they could accomplish this specific goal for Him.
Though some other countries may be starting to catch up,
America still has sent out more missionaries to the rest of the
world to preach the gospel than any other country has ever done
before. And now with the major advancements made in technology
over the last 100 years or so with television and the internet,
the world has now become much more interconnected with one
another.
We can now reach people all over the world with the gospel
of Jesus in a way that we have never been able to do before.
Christianity can now be preached and delivered to many in the
world today through television and the internet. We can now
reach many more people with the gospel than what we could
before with just direct missionary work.
However, as great and rosy as this scenario appears to be
for our country, there is now a storm cloud that has formed out
over our horizon, and our country is now starting to develop
cancer cells that are not only going to subside and go away,
but I am afraid these cancer cells will only strengthen and
grow wider, deeper, and stronger over the coming years. And
again, Jesus was one step ahead of all of this with some of the
specific prophecies He made in the New Testament before He
ascended to His Father.
Jesus has already told us that there would be a falling away
and a departing from their faith in Him in the end times, and
that many of His own elect were going to be fooled and deceived
by other false belief systems, signs and wonders being done by
the dark side, and many of the false teachers, false prophets
and false christs that would come upon this earth in the latter
days. And this is exactly what we are starting to see.
Not only is anti-Semitism on the rise across much of the
world today, but there is also a major and noticeable increase
in the rise against Christianity itself. Much of Europe is now
turning away from Christianity to a more secular agenda, and
even many in our own country are coming out and attacking the
basics teachings of true Christianity.
What I believe is really occurring is that an
antichrist spirit is now starting to invade and envelop
much of the world. The battle lines are now really being
drawn between true born-again Christians and the rest of
the world.
If a real live Antichrist is going to come to
rule this entire world during the last 7 years of this
world, which is known as the Great Tribulation, then I
believe that an antichrist spirit will proceed his coming
in order to help prepare the way for him to be able to gain
full control of the entire world during those last 7 years.
And now with our own country being officially invaded by
this antichrist spirit, I believe that we are now on the
way to Armageddon.
Whether or not any of this happens in our personal lifetimes
obviously remains to be seen. But I believe major Bible
prophecies are now coming to pass and we are now truly living
in the end times.
This antichrist spirit is like a cancer cell and it is now
spreading to every corner of the globe. I am afraid there is
now no way we can stop this antichrist spirit from forming out
and spreading its wings. All we can do as good Christian
soldiers is to rise up and fight against it whenever and
wherever it rears its ugly head. And it is rearing its ugly
head in all walks of our life.
We now have an antichrist spirit that has invaded and
infected all of our school systems, our media, and our judicial
systems.
We have liberal and atheistic teachers, professors and
principals trying to ban the Bible and any form of prayer from
any part of the school life, along with trying to ban any type
of teaching on the debate of creation versus evolution. We now
have many college professors who are teaching very liberal and
secular points of view right in the middle of their actual
classes - and then criticizing and ridiculing any conservative
Christian who tries to speak up to give an opposing point of
view for other students to consider.
As a result of the liberal and anti-Christian bias that is
on many of our college campuses today, some Christians are
either losing their faith or falling away from parts of their
faith in the Lord due to the secular, liberal and atheistic
views of these college professors and teachers.
We now have a media that has become highly secular and
humanistic. Not only do they not like God and everything that
He stands for, but they want Him out of every possible public
arena. As a result, many of our major newspapers and magazines
across this country are now preaching a very liberal and
godless secular agenda.
And then to top it off, the ACLU, which is supposed to be
our friend and ally, and who is supposed to protecting all of
our civil liberties and rights, has now joined sides with this
secular movement, and they are now filing ridiculous lawsuits
trying to stop the free expression of our faith in any form of
the public eye.
And not only are we not receiving any help from our own
media or any of these civil liberty organizations, but this
antichrist spirit has now invaded our own judicial system.
We now have liberal and secular judges making rulings and
decisions in some of these court cases that are a complete
abomination against the Lord. Abortion is still a legalized
crime in our country, and every single day 4000 unborn children
are being cold-bloodedly murdered right in the middle of their
mother's wombs. We still have a mass genocide occurring every
single day in this Christian country due to the liberal and
secular agendas now running through parts of our judicial
system and government.
Jesus has already told us that the truth will set us free.
However, just the opposite is also true. Not having or seeing
the truth, and not operating and walking in those godly truths,
will cause us to become slaves to the devil. Jesus has already
told us that those who sin will become slaves to their
sins.
Those who are living and working in these godless
secular camps may think they are free from any moral
absolutes or any moral restrictions from the Lord, but in
reality they have become mindless slaves to the dark side,
and they have now become nothing but pure pawns for the
devil to use as he sees fit to further his agenda to rule
the world through the coming Antichrist.
Many of these people are operating under direct
demonic influence with some of their warped and debased
points of view. Demons are playing some of these people
like fiddles, and these people are totally clueless as to
what is really going on behind the scenes between God and
the devil for all of their souls.
As a result, Christians are now made fun of, attacked and
criticized on a non-stop and regular basis, both in the media
and on the streets in real life. Christian bashing is now the
"in" thing to do among many in the media and hollywood elite.
We are now looked upon by many in the secular world today as
outcasts, right-wing extremists, Jesus freaks and
homophobes.
Popular TV and radio talk show host Bill O'Reilly has
recently written a very good and powerful book on this
unfolding dilemma in our society today. He calls what is now
going on with all of this an actual "culture war" - a culture
war between secular-progressives and the traditional
conservative Americans who still want to try and stay true to
their basic conservative Christian beliefs that this country
was initially founded on.
What is really going on with all of this once you step back
and look at the big picture is that we are now heading into end
time waters as specifically prophesied out of our Bible. With
the coming of a real live Antichrist who will rule this world
for most, if not all of the last 7 years of this world, it is
only logical to conclude that we will see an antichrist spirit
start to invade this entire world to prepare for his coming -
and that is exactly what we are now starting to see enter onto
the world stage.
What this means for all Christians is that this antichrist
spirit is not going to be going away. And not only is this
antichrist spirit not going to be going away, but it is only
going to get bigger and grow wider and stronger over the coming
years until it finally leads up to the real Antichrist, who
will then take center stage on the world as a ruler over a 10
nation confederacy.
The battle lines are now being drawn between God's people
and the devil's people. Sooner or later, every unbeliever will
have to make a decision as to which side they are going to
stand on for all of eternity.
Since we receive so many emails from new believers, I want
to use this article to try and answer a question that many of
them have either had or will be having sometime in the near
future as they continue to grow in their own personal walks
with the Lord.
This 50 million dollar question is why - why do so
many people hate Jesus and everything that He personally
stands for?
Once you start reading the Bible and start learning what the
big picture is really all about, one of the questions many of
you will have is how can so many people in this world hate the
one and only Savior that can actually save them?
Once you come to see and understand who Jesus really is and
what He is actually all about, you will wonder - how can anyone
literally come to hate Him?
We are talking about a perfect God-being, a perfect God and
Lord who has nothing but all of our best interests at heart.
How can anyone really hate Jesus when all He wants to do is
save us and bring us back into heaven with Him and His Father
after we die and cross over?
Jesus Himself answers this specific question for us in the
two verses I will give you in this article.
When you study very carefully what He is trying to tell us
in these first two verses, and then take this revelation and
plug it into the big picture, you will see very clearly why so
many people have hated Jesus throughout the years, and why they
still continue to hate Him to this very day - even in this
supposedly enlightened day and age.
The Scripture Verses
To fully answer this question, you need to really meditate
on three specific pieces of revelation that is being given to
us by the Lord. I will break these verses down under these
three specific revelations so you can fully understand why so
many in the world have hated our Lord and Savior for a little
over 2000 years since His birth into our world.
1. The World Hates Jesus Because He Testifies That Its
Works Are Evil
This first verse I will give you is coming direct from Jesus
Himself. In this verse is full and complete revelation as to
why so many in the world today hate Jesus. The second verse
will then add some additional understanding to this
revelation.
- "The world cannot hate you, but it hates Me because
I testify of it that its works are evil." (John
7:7)
- "And this is the condemnation, that the light has
come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than
light, because their deeds were evil. For everyone
practicing evil hates the light and does not come to the
light, lest his deeds should be exposed. But he who does
the truth comes to the light, that his deeds may be clearly
seen, that they have been done in God." (John
3:19-21)
In this first verse, Jesus is flat out telling us that the
world is never going to love Him, embrace Him or accept Him. He
is telling us that the world is literally going to
"hate" Him.
Notice that Jesus is using the word "hate." The word
hate is the strongest word you can use to describe when you
really do not like someone. It is one thing not to like
someone, but it is quite another thing to actually hate
someone. And we are talking about the world actually hating God
Almighty Himself, since Jesus is also God and Lord Himself and
is the second Person of the Divine Trinity.
So you can see how strong and intense of a word
"hate" really is, here are some definitions of this word
from Webster's Dictionary and several different Bible
Dictionaries and Commentaries:
- To feel extreme enmity toward
- To have strong dislike or ill will for, loath,
despise
- A strong negative reaction, a feeling toward someone
considered an enemy
- An intense feeling of aversion or enmity, which
could prompt a person to loath someone or
something
After Jesus makes this specific statement that the world is
always going to hate Him, then notices what He says next. He
then gives us the specific reason as to why so many in the
world are always going hate Him - and this reason is because
Jesus will be testifying that "its works are evil." And
this is where you really get into the heart and crux of this
entire matter.
Jesus then gives us an additional revelation in the second
verse as to why so many people have hated Him and will continue
to hate Him until He comes back to our earth to set up His
Millennium Kingdom. In this second verse He tells us that many
in our world are always going to love darkness over light. In
other words, they will love and choose evil over good. They
will always prefer to do bad and evil things instead of
choosing to do good and godly things.
Also notice that Jesus uses the specific words that these
people are "practicing evil." Those who are practicing
evil are people who are doing evil things on some type of
regular and consistent basis and who are making no attempt to
try and pull out of it.
We see this exact dilemma unfolding with many of our
criminals. Some of these criminals keep repeating and
"practicing" the same behavior patterns that got them
thrown into jail in the first place. But not only does this
revelation apply to criminals, but it also applies to all of us
to one degree or another.
Bottom line - we are all sinners and we all need a personal
Savior in Jesus Christ to save us from those sins. This now
leaves each person with one of two choices they will have to
eventually make in this life.
We can either admit that we are all fallen and corrupt
sinners, born that way through our mother's womb, and then be
willing to accept the redemption and pardon that Jesus is
willing to offer to us through His sacrificial death on the
cross - or we can refuse to admit that we are sinners, that we
do not need Jesus to save us from our sinful states, and then
go on living thinking that we will never really have to face
any type of personal judgment on our lives or any kind of
eternal consequences for all of the actions we have taken in
this life once we die and cross over.
If you can't or won't admit that you are a fallen
sinner, then you will see no need to accept Jesus as your
personal Savior. You will then become totally
self-sufficient and totally self-reliant in your own tunnel
vision, and you will then go on your merry way living this
life as if you are in complete control of your own destiny.
And this is the exact attitude and the exact path that many
atheists, agnostics and secular people are now
taking.
What is quite amazing about all of this is how deceitful
the human heart and mind can become when it comes to real
spiritual truths. People can justify and rationalize some
of the most abominable and sinful behaviors imaginable.
Pedophiles are a perfect example. Some of them have convinced
and persuaded themselves that what they are wanting to do is
perfectly natural and normal and that society should not try
and stop them from doing it.
Homosexuals will try and justify that their type of sexual
practices are again something that is completely healthy and
normal, even though God the Father calls this type of lifestyle
an abomination and is one of the extreme sins that will keep
you from being able to enter into heaven.
Those who support pro-choice in the abortion debate have
convinced themselves that all women have the right to play God
with the life of their unborn child, and that she alone,
instead of God Himself, can determine whether or not her unborn
child lives or dies before he is born through her womb.
Bottom line - the main reason that so many in the
world have always hated Jesus is because they know that He
is God Almighty and that He has drawn a major battle line
in the sand with what we can and cannot do in this
life. Jesus has set up the ways and
commandments that we are to follow in this life. He has let
all of us know, loud and clear, what the real rules of the
game are and how we are to play this game of life.
As a result of the sin nature and rebellious streak that
every one of us has been born into this world with, each person
will have to make their own personal decision as to whether or
not they are going to follow God's ways and commandments for
their lives, or follow their own ways or the ways of this
world. You cannot have this both ways.
You are either going to admit that you are a sinner, that
you need a personal Savior to save you, and then take that big
step to accept Jesus as your Lord and Savior - or you are going
to refuse to accept Jesus and His gift of eternal salvation and
go on your own merry way determined that no one is going to
tell you what to do or how to live your life. You want total
freedom to do what you want and be what you want, and you do
not want any rules, commandments or moral absolutes telling you
what you can and cannot do in this life.
To those who will choose to walk in this kind of
darkness, over the course of time they will come to loathe
and hate Jesus and everything that He stands for. They know
Jesus stands not only for mercy, love and favor, but they
also know He stands for righteousness and judgment and that
there is no way He is ever going to approve or condone some
of the specific sins they are walking in.
The second verse above tells us that those who walk in this
kind of darkness will not come to the light because they know
the light will expose their sins. As a result, they would
prefer to keep a safe distance from the Lord or from any other
Christians for that matter. As a result, they will never come
to the saving grace and knowledge that can only be found in
Jesus Christ.
Though they know they are gambling with their eternal fates,
as they know they will eventually die and have to cross over
into something - the pull of the dark side is too strong for
many of them and they will thus choose to never pull out of
their darkness, even to the day they literally die and depart
from this life.
And then it happens. The minute they die and depart
from this life, their souls will immediately pull up and
leave their bodies, and they will then be immediately
dropped into the pit of hell itself - never, ever being
given another chance to change course. They are now lost
for ever, and they will never, ever be given another window
of opportunity to make things right with the Lord.
And all of this could have been so easily
avoided had they swallowed their pride, relied on their
common sense and intelligence, and thought things all the
way through. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to see how
flawed, how imperfect, and what corrupt and fallen sinners
we all truly are and that only Jesus Christ can save us
from this fallen state.
So if you want to know why so much of the liberal and
secular world hate Jesus, hate all Christians, and hate
everything that Christianity stands for - look no further than
the reasons just given to us in the above two verses.
The prideful, sinning secularists are living and wallowing
in their own personal sins and iniquities, and they do not want
God, Jesus or any other Christians pointing out and exposing
their sins, their flaws, and the way they are wanting to live
their lives in their carnal, primal and hedonistic worlds. They
want the license and the freedom to be able to continue to live
in their sinning ways.
Christianity, when preached in its truest and purest
form, is the only faith and religion that will call sin out
for what it really is and call out man for what he really
is - a wretched sinner in need of a personal
Savior.
No other false religion, cult or New Age
movement will call out the big picture for what it really
is. This is why Christianity is the only faith that gets
made fun of and ridiculed by the world - because it is the
only faith that poses a direct threat to all of the sins
these people are living and walking in.
2. Admitting That We Are Sinners
If Jesus is God and Lord Himself, and He is perfect in His
being and in His knowledge in all things, then why can't the
world accept all of His statements as being pure solid
truth?
If Jesus is telling us that some of our behaviors and
actions are going to be sinful and wrong in His sight, and that
we are all sinners in need of a personal Savior, then why can't
the world accept His word and opinion on the matter and get
with His program and accept Him as their personal Savior?
The first obvious hurdle for many is to be willing to see
and accept the fact that we are all fallen sinners. God has
made it as easy as He possibly could by giving all of us these
basic truths from His Word. But yet so many think they know
better than God as to what the real spiritual truths are in
this life.
As a result of our egos and flesh, many people will have a
hard time in admitting to either themselves or to God that they
are flawed sinners in need of His saving grace. They want to be
their own person. They want to live this life by their own
rules and regulations, and they want to believe they are
capable of accomplishing big and great things, all operating
out of their own natural strength and intelligence.
And then you have Satan and his horde of demons adding to
the mix, as they will try and start to play with people's mind,
trying to get them to fall into a false way of thinking and
looking at the world. One of the greatest deceptions that Satan
has ever thrown onto mankind is the false belief that we can
all become "like god" in some way or some fashion.
Many areas of the New Age movement, and some of the other
false religions and cults that are still in operation in the
world today, will try and tell you that you have the ability to
attain some kind of state of "godness" in your earthly state.
Instead of looking direct to Jesus for eternal salvation, they
will try to get you to look inside of yourself and convince you
that you have the power within your own natural being to save
and sanctify yourself.
They will try and tell you that you have the ability to tap
into a God-consciousness that is already in you, and that you
can reach and obtain higher levels and states of consciousness
and spiritual development without going through the Holy
Spirit.
In other words, you have the supernatural power within
yourself to change yourself for the better if you will just
learn how to find it and tap into it. You do not need Jesus to
save you from your sins or to give you the gift of eternal
salvation. You do not need the Holy Spirit living and operating
on the inside of your being to change yourself for the better.
You can do this all by yourself if you will just spend enough
time seeking to find the right kind of hidden spiritual
knowledge.
How many people in some kind of position of power and
authority have fallen from incredible heights as a result of
succumbing to this false way of thinking? How many people have
become a "god" in their own little worlds and then eventually
fell and lost it all?
Saddam Hussein, Adolph Hitler, Joseph Stalin and Satan
himself are perfect examples of three humans and one angel who
have fallen from the tops of major mountains and kingdoms as a
result of thinking that they had become some kind of god
themselves. Their pride truly came right before all of their
falls.
Here is the verse from Genesis that will show you exactly
how Satan was able to trick and fool Eve to eat off of the tree
that the Lord had told her to stay away from:
And the serpent said to the woman, "You will not surely
die. For God knows that in the day you eat of it your eyes
will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing
good and evil." (Genesis 3:4-5)
Notice two key words that Satan spoke to Eve to get her to
sin against the Lord. He told her that if she would eat the
fruit off of this tree, that she would then become "like
God." In other words, that she could become a god herself.
And if you can become like God yourself, then you will never
need God or His Son Jesus.
This is the same lie and the same ruse that Satan has been
using down through the ages with all of the other false
religions and cults that he has started, and man has been
falling for it ever since. Man has never learned from the
history of his past, and many people just keep repeating the
same destructive behavior patterns over and over again.
With man always having to do battle with his pride, his ego
and the dark desires of his flesh, you will always have a
certain percentage of the human race who will never accept
Jesus and everything that He stands for. To accept Jesus would
be to admit that they are flawed sinners and that they do not
have the power, the ability or the means to be able to save and
sanctify themselves.
This is why the Bible tells us that pride will always come
before the fall. The spirit and sin of pride has caused
one-third of the angelic host to be forever banished from
heaven, and I am afraid that same spirit will also be keeping a
certain percentage of the human race from ever entering into
the loving and saving grace of our one and only true Savior,
Jesus Christ.
As a result of not being able to admit they are
sinners in the first place, many of these unbelieving and
unrepentant sinners will hate Jesus and everything that He
stands for. Jesus is a constant reminder of their own
earthly mortality and of the fleshly sins they are living
in - and they just cannot bear the thought that the paths
they have chosen to follow in this life are the wrong
paths.
As a result, you will always have many in the world today
who will be at odds and enmity with the Lord. That is why Jesus
has told all of us loud and clear that we will become His
Father's enemy if we ever become too friendly with the world
and the ways of it.
The Holy Spirit can bring His conviction down upon these
people, but they still have to be willing to accept and work
with that conviction once it comes upon them. The Bible tells
us that the Holy Spirit will wrestle and strive with these
kinds of people. However, there is a limit to God's patience
and mercy and He will not strive with these people forever.
3. Be Willing to Repent
Once you are able to see and admit that you are a fallen
sinner in need of a personal Savior, then the next big step you
will need to make before you can receive eternal salvation from
the Lord is to be willing to repent from your sins. And this is
the second main hurdle that many in the secular camp cannot
make.
To repent means to be willing to have a change of mind and a
change of heart. It means to be willing to pull out of the
sinful life you have been living in and make an attempt to live
in the new life that Jesus will be giving you once you accept
Him as your Lord and Savior. It means to be willing to turn
from the sins you have been living in.
But this particular hurdle is one that many sinners have a
real problem with. Many of them are living in heavier sins they
do not want to pull out of. They do not want to give up these
heavier sins because of the pleasure and gratification they are
receiving from these sins - even when it is explained to them
that they will have the power of the Holy Spirit Himself to
help them pull out of these sins.
Many of the unsaved are living in vices such as addictions
to alcohol and drugs. Other are living in very promiscuous
sexual lifestyles and they do not want to give up the sexual
pleasures and gratification they are receiving from this
hedonistic type of lifestyle. Others are living in homosexual
lifestyles which they know are going against the ways and
commandments of God. Others are making and earning money
through some type of criminal enterprise, knowing they are not
only breaking some of God's laws, but they also breaking some
of the laws of our society.
For many who are living in these heavier sin areas - the
money, the power, the glory, along with all of the material
pleasures and sexual gratification that comes from living in
these types of heavier sins, is just too much for some of them
and they thus have no natural desire to ever want to pull out
of these heavier sin areas - even though they know they are
gambling with their eternal fates. They would prefer to
literally die in the fleshly, carnal and primal pleasures they
are living in.
The Bible makes it very clear that one of the key steps in
being able to receive the gift of eternal salvation from the
Lord is to be willing to repent of your sins. Again, being
willing to repent from your sins means that you are willing to
turn from those sins and pull out of those sins. And where you
have a stronger type of sin that you are being held in bondage
too such as drugs or alcohol, you will agree to work with the
power of the Holy Spirit to help pull you out of it once you
have accepted Jesus as your Savior.
In the Bible Basis section of our site, we have an article
titled "True Repentance Will
Lead to Salvation." In that article, I give you the key
verses where repentance is being directly linked to us being
able to receive the gift of eternal salvation from the
Lord.
If you are willing to admit that you are a sinner, and then
you are willing to accept Jesus as your personal Savior, Jesus
will then give you His supernatural power through the Holy
Spirit to help break you free from any of these heavier sins as
long - as you are in total agreement with it and are willing to
work with Him during the deliverance process. There is
absolutely nothing that the power of God cannot set you totally
and completely free from if you are willing to accept the
Lord's help and then be willing to work with Him on it.
For the purposes of this article, I will once more give you
some of these key verses so you can see how repentance is a key
essential ingredient in being able to receive the gift of
eternal salvation from the Lord.
- "I tell you, no; but unless you repent you will all
likewise perish." (Luke 13:5)
- "Truly, these times of ignorance God overlooked, but
now commands all men everywhere to repent." (Acts
17:30)
- "Repent therefore and be converted, that your
sins may be blotted out, so that times of refreshing may
come from the presence of the Lord." (Acts 3:19)
- "For godly sorrow produces repentance to
salvation ... (2 Corinthians 7:10)
- "Those who are well have no need of a physician, but
those who are sick. I did not come to call the
righteous, but sinners, to repentance." (Mark
2:17)
Notice the very first verse is telling us that unless we are
willing to repent from our sins, that we will perish. In other
words, we will not be able to receive God's gift of eternal
salvation through His Son Jesus unless we are first willing to
repent. In each one of these verses, repentance is being
directly linked to being able to receive the gift of eternal
salvation from the Lord.
This is why the Christian faith is such a direct threat to
many living in these secular and humanistic type of
environments. They know that God is "commanding" them to
repent or else they will all die in their sins. But yet they
will let their ego and their pride tell them that they know
better than God as to how they should be living their lives. As
a result, they will set a course in their lives that no one,
including God Himself, will tell them how they are going to
live their lives - even if it means that it will lead to their
own eternal destruction.
Like the famous Frank Sinatra song "I Did It My Way" - at
least they will die with the satisfaction that they did it
their way before they go to their final destination, which will
be direct to hell itself.
It is simply mind-blowing that the spirit of pride can so
blind and so distort so many people's view of reality to the
extent that they will refuse to accept the pardon and
redemption that Jesus Christ is willing to offer them through
the Blood that He has personally shed for each and everyone of
them on the cross.
Conclusion
With this antichrist spirit now in full bloom and spreading
very rapidly across much of the world, I am afraid that we will
be seeing much more hate speech being directed against Jesus
and His church.
What I believe is really happening behind the scenes in the
spiritual realm is that demonic spirits have now set up
stronghold bases behind many of our main institutions. In other
words, many of our public institutions have now become demonic
strongholds.
What better way to try and bring down a Christian nation
than to target some of its main institutions such as its school
systems, its judicial systems and all of its main media
outlets. The idea is to focus on institutions that have the
ability to reach the masses.
Our school systems are a perfect place to try and brainwash
our young children into accepting a godless secular agenda,
much like the radical Muslims are now doing with their young
children in training them to be suicide bombers, and in the
same way Adolph Hitler targeted many of Germany's young
children as he was rising to power.
Our media outlets can reach millions of people across the
world and again, what better way to spread a godless secular
agenda than to have this kind of demonic philosophy spread
right out into many of their articles and editorials through
all of their newspapers and magazines.
And then to top it off, make sure this kind of godless
secular agenda invades the judicial systems so as to make sure
that some of these demonic agendas are literally passed as a
law of the land as the crime of abortion has been.
The fact that not just a few, but many schools, many
judges and many media outlets are operating under this
godless train of thought is telling me that Satan and some
of his higher ranking demons have literally set up
stronghold bases behind many of these public institutions.
As a result, you have many who are working in these
institutions who are now operating under direct demonic
influence and they have no idea they are being used as
pawns by Satan and some of his demons.
Unless you are grounded in the true teachings of
Jesus Christ, you will not have the knowledge or the wisdom
to be able to separate God's truth from Satan's lies and
deceptions. The fact that so many highly intelligent people
are falling for this secular and humanistic agenda, which
is coming straight from the pit of hell itself, is perfect
living proof of just how easily Satan can still deceive
people like he did with Adam and Eve in the Garden of
Eden.
This is why Christianity is such a perfect litmus test for
anyone operating under this kind of demonic influence. They
will have no hatred or disdain for any of the other false
religions operating in our world today. It is only the
Christian faith they will attack and try and remove from every
public area of life. The fact they are showing such a strong
hatred and disdain for Christianity and no other religions is
again, more perfect proof they really are operating under some
kind of demonic influence in their own personal lives.
When you really step back and look at this big picture, and
what is really going on behind the scenes with so many of these
people being so easily led right into this demonic way of
thinking, it is just gut-wrenching to watch. They are attacking
and hating the only Person who can actually save them from
their sins.
God loves all of these people so much, that He was willing
to send down and sacrifice His one and only Son in order to
save them from their fallen and sinful states. And not only was
God the Father willing to make this sacrifice with His one and
only Son, but His Son Jesus Christ was willing to take up that
divine call and was willing to incarnate Himself into a human
flesh body so that He could undergo the most extreme form of
capital punishment known to mankind when He came - crucifixion
by using nails.
For Jesus to show this kind of extreme love towards
mankind so that all men and all women could receive His
saving grace to get them back into heaven - and then to
have some of these people literally spit right into His
face and show nothing but pure contempt and outright hatred
towards Him - is enough to just break your heart since we
all know what their final fate will be if they do not
repent and turn from their evil way of living before they
depart from this life.
What Jesus said on the cross as He was slowly dying might be
the perfect epitaph to put on some of these people's
gravestones:
"Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they
do." (Luke 23:34)
If any of you know anyone is who has fallen for this demonic
agenda and have literally started to personally attack Jesus
and everything that He stands for, put them on the top of your
prayer list and pray for their salvation to the day they
die.
Pray to God that He break down the deceptive walls of the
enemy that is blinding them to the real truth and ask God, by
the power of the Holy Spirit, that He show them what the real
truth is before it is too late.
Your personal prayers to the Lord for some of these people
may be the only thing that will save them their eventual final
end - the Lake of Fire and Brimstone, where the Bible says that
the smoke of their torment will ascend forever and ever.
