"Deception in All Forms"

Scripture Reading:
Matthew 24:24  (HCSB) False messiahs and false prophets will arise and perform great signs and wonders to lead astray,  if possible, even the elect.

Devotional Reading:

Who's the most charismatic leader you've ever seen - past or present? Is it a political leader, religious leader, or a leader in academia? Leaders can be a tremendous influence for good or evil. The Bible talks about a great leader who will burst onto the world scene. He will appear to be good, seeking to bring unity and peace to the world. He will focus on the desire for economic prosperity. He will be an extraordinarily brilliant and gifted leader who will cause the world to be in awe.  But don't be led astray. The Bible calls him the Antichrist. He will be incredibly attractive and charismatic, but all about himself. He will be the embodiment of evil, but appear to be good. He will be an imposter and counterfeit of the one Man who will ultimately bring true peace--Jesus Christ. That's why this man is called the Antichrist. Study what the Bible says about the contrast of the Antichrist and Jesus. Believe, and don't be deceived.  John tells us the "spirit of the antichrist is already in the world; he was here when John wrote his first epistle (1 John 4:1-5) and perhaps even before then.  Do not be deceived.  This is a vile and perverse generation we live in with same-sex this and right to choose life, everything goes and what is morality and right is wrong in this present age we live!

Keep the Son in your eyes,
