Anchored in Truth:

Navigating Deception and Resting in God's Sovereignty,
In the tumultuous landscape of the end times, where deception looms large and false prophets abound,
the words of Jesus in Matthew 24 offer both warning and reassurance.
Among His teachings is a cautionary note about the rise of false Christs and prophets,
who will perform great signs and wonders to mislead, even the elect.


The gravity of this warning prompts believers to cultivate spiritual vigilance and discernment, anchoring themselves firmly in the truth of Christ amidst the swirling currents of deception.
The Greek word translated as "elect" is eklektós, signifying "chosen ones."


Throughout the New Testament, this term is used to refer to genuine followers of Jesus, who are held securely in the hands of their Savior. While the potency of deception may seem formidable, the resounding assurance of God's protection envelops the Lord's Predestined Chosen One's, shielding them from the snares of the enemy.

This divine safeguard is not contingent upon human strength or merit but is anchored in the unchanging character and faithfulness of God.


Moreover, the Scriptures affirm that the elect are known and loved by God from before the foundation of the world.

They are predestined, called, justified, and will eventually be glorified. This profound truth underscores the immutable sovereignty of God, who orchestrates all things according to the counsel of His will.


In the face of deception:

believers find solace and strength in the unshakable promise of God's protection, trusting in His sovereign care and provision.


The central to navigating the complexities of our age is;

The intimate relationship between the Shepherd and His sheep, as depicted in John 10:2–5.

Just as sheep instinctively recognize and follow the voice of their Shepherd, believers are called to discern the voice of truth amidst the clamor of deception.


By cultivating intimacy with Jesus through prayer, study of His Word, and communion with His Spirit,


believers equip themselves to distinguish His voice from the deceptive whispers of false prophets.


Conclusion:

In essence, amidst the tumult of deception and uncertainty,
believers find refuge in the unchanging truth of God's Word and the unwavering grace of their Savior.


Anchored in Christ,

they navigate the complexities of the end times with confidence,


knowing that their ultimate security rests in the sovereign hands of their loving Father.
Absolutely nothing else will hold in these coming times
BUT
The Word of God;
Which is the Scripture's in the Holy Bible!
"The Lord meticulously preserved His words as they traversed through generations, a divine thread woven into the fabric of human history.


Here's The "But Yet":

But Yet in today's discourse, skepticism often shrouds the Bible, dismissing it as merely a collection of human sentiments.


To those who hold such views, I issue a challenge: Right now, take a moment to delve into the depth of Scripture. Explore the multitude of prophecies embedded within its pages and witness their startling fulfillment.


For those yet unfulfilled, consider their placement on the timeline of history and our present reality.


Then, I implore you to ponder this question, either within your own thoughts or through the lens of ChatGPT:


What are the staggering odds of countless prophecies coming to fruition with pinpoint accuracy, mirroring their written words in undeniable detail?"


HERE ARE THE 2 OUTCOMES, Which One Are You ?


  • Once confronted with the undeniable facts of what has transpired and what

is yet to unfold, a profound revelation dawns upon the heart and mind.


The truth becomes clear, illuminating the perilous path of following the flesh, which inevitably leads to pain, suffering, and the ultimate demise of our inner vitality.


In this moment of clarity, the cry for Jesus resonates within, prompting a profound transformation.


The once powerful grip of fleshly desires begins to dissipate, melting away in the radiant light of divine understanding.


  • However, a word of caution: vigilance is paramount. It is imperative to immerse oneself in the Word of God, whether through diligent reading of the Bible or the daily practice of memorizing and reflecting upon a verse. This continuous engagement with Scripture fortifies the mind and spirit, ensuring steadfastness on the path of truth and righteousness.



  • "For those entangled in the allure of sin, the veil remains firmly in place, obscuring the light of truth.


Despite the evidence before them, they persist in denial, clinging to the fleeting pleasures of the flesh that enthrall us all.


Their hearts resist the call to transformation, preferring the familiarity of sin's embrace over the unknown path of renewal.


Yet, the invitation stands: to release the grip of sin and embrace the promise of becoming a new creation in Christ."


As they fix their eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of their faith, they find rest in His unfailing love and sovereignty, confident that His purposes will prevail and His chosen ones will be glorified.

There is still time, For those who read this and now are having thoughts like:
"You are lost and you can never be redeemed" or
"This is not for you as you have done things, This God will never forgive"
Anything negative: Know This, It is not from Christ, It's the flesh or it's the prince of this world we live in!.
Rebuke it in the name of Jesus, and keep saying this until it flees.
Read verses and repeat them throughout the day if the negative thoughts keep penetrating your mind. The longer this happens, the more you should understand that indeed there are other forces than the ones you can see.
There is a war going on in the unseen realms,
This war is waged over your soul and you don't even know.
