"STUDY" - BY USING THE
TO PROVE SATAN
IS THE DECEIVER!
\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\
Are you scratching your head, wondering what is happening in this world today? Why
is there so much chaos? Down through the ages there has been peace then chaos! The Bible
tells us that in the beginning there was chaos and destruction of this earth before mankind was
created! "In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. And the earth was without
form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon
the face of the waters" (Gen 1:1-2).
During this time, Satan was the original one chosen to rule this earth, until sin was found in him. God
said of Satan, "Thou art the anointed cherub that covereth; and I have set thee so: thou wast upon the holy
mountain of God; thou hast walked up and down in the midst of the stones of fire. Thou wast perfect in thy ways
from the day that thou wast created, till iniquity was found in thee" (Ezek 28:14-15). "How art thou fallen from
heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations!
For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will
sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north: I will ascend above the heights of the
clouds; I will be like the most High. Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides of the pit. They that see
thee shall narrowly look upon thee, and consider thee, saying, Is this the man that made the earth to tremble, that
did shake kingdoms; That made the world as a wilderness, and destroyed the cities thereof; that opened not the
house of his prisoners?" (Isa 14:12-17).
The Apostle John in Revelation tells us that Satan has deceived the whole world! "And the great dragon
was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into
the earth, and his angels were cast out with him" (Rev 12:9). Satan, the god of this world has hidden God's truth
from most of mankind. "But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost: In whom the god of this world
hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image
of God, should shine unto them" (2 Cor. 4:4).
Is it no wonder that Satan has deceived the whole world since the beginning of mankind. "Now the
serpent was more subtil than any beast of the field which the LORD God had made. And he said unto the woman,
Yea, hath God said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden? And the woman said unto the serpent, We may
eat of the fruit of the trees of the garden: But of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God hath
said, Ye shall not eat of it, neither shall ye touch it, lest ye die. And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall
not surely die" ( Gen 3:1-4). Both Adam and Eve was deceived by Satan! Both tried to place the blame on each
other! This was Satan's first lie to mankind!
Satan tempted Christ as He was fasting. He offered Christ rulership of the world at that time. "And the
devil, taking Him up into an high mountain, shewed unto Him all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of
time. And the devil said unto Him, All this power will I give Thee, and the glory of them: for that is delivered
unto me; and to whomsoever I will I give it. If thou therefore wilt worship me, all shall be thine" (Luke 4:5-7).
This verse shows that Satan was the ruling god of this world! Even today, the people of this world falls for his
lies!
As time went on, Satan and his lies caused chaos into every generation. Christ said to the Pharisees in
John 8:44 , "Why do ye not understand My speech? even because ye cannot hear My word. Ye are of your father
the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the
truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the
father of it." Many World leaders and this United States of America are following in Satna's footsteps! They
lie in speeches, printed news articles and television news and use scare tactics to deceive people!
Satan the deceiver has the whole world blinded to this day! "In whom the god of this world hath blinded
the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God,
should shine unto them" (2 Cor 4:4).
Is it any wonder then that the whole world believes in the false Christ's that we are told about in the books
of Matthew and Mark? "And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you. For many
shall come in My name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many" (Matt 24:4-5). "And Jesus answering them
began by saying, Take heed lest any man deceive you: For many shall come in My name, saying, I am Christ;
and shall deceive many" (Mark 13:5-6). Mankind is taught the gospel is about the person of Christ and not the
true gospel of the Kingdom of God that is to come at Christ' return! Religious leaders use the name of Christ,
but they won't obey the words He teaches.
The Catholic Church leaders changed the 7th day Sabbath worship to Sunday worship. And the Protestant
leaders followed right along. They observe the pagan holidays such as Christmas, Easter Valentines Day and
Halloween instead of God's true Holy Days as prescribed in Leviticus 23. Even the Jews follow the false
teaching of postponing God's true count for the Holy Day. They count back 177 days from the 7th month to get
the first day of the 1st month for counting their Holidays!
God's word does not change. "For I am the LORD, I change not; therefore ye sons of Jacob are not
consumed" (Mal 3:6). Paul in the New Testament said, "Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for
ever" (Heb 13:8).
The Protestant say that the law of God has been done away, but what does Christ say about that? "For
verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all
be fulfilled. Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall
be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called
great in the kingdom of heaven" (Matt 5:18-19). The world is being taught a false Christianity!!
The Jewish religion does not believe Jesus Christ is the son of God and the Messiah they are looking for!
"For had ye believed Moses, ye would have believed Me: for he wrote of Me. But if ye believe not his writings,
how shall ye believe My words?" (John 5:46-47). And the Muslim world does not believe that Christ is the Son
of God, just another prophet!
Throughout God's word, we are told we cannot add to or take away from God's truth! "Ye shall not add
unto the word which I command you, neither shall ye diminish ought from it, that ye may keep the
commandments of the LORD your God which I command you" (Deut 4:2). "For I testify unto every man that
heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him
the plagues that are written in this book" (Rev 22:18).
The deceived by Satan! has copied all of God's truth with lies! How can we believe the so called
"Christian" world when they are feeding us Satan's lies. Right now most of the false churches are teaching the
doctrines of devils. They are changing the law of God regarding marriage between a man and a woman. "And
he shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to
change times and laws: and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time"
(Dan 7:25). Marriage is in the hands of the Supreme Court of the United States to decide if gay marriage is
legal!! They are teaching that it is alright with God that a man marry a man and a woman marry another woman!
What an abomination in God's eyes!
The false ministers do not preach the true doctrines of the coming kingdom of God, but a false doctrine
of compromise! It's easier to compromise with truth then to live the truth. The world is being taught, strong
delusions. "Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away
first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is
called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.
Remember ye not, that, when I was yet with you, I told you these things? And now ye know what withholdeth
that he might be revealed in his time.For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will
let, until he be taken out of the way. And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with
the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming: Even him, whose coming is after the
working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, and with all deceivableness of unrighteousness
in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. And for this cause
God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: That they all might be damned who believed
not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness" (2 Thess 2:3-12).
Today, the end time called people of God, must let the Bible be the interpreter of our
beliefs! We must not keep looking to the Protestant and Catholic church teachers to guide us
in our study of God's word! We must search for truth in the Bible. Why? Because, "They [the
called] are not of the world, even as I am not of the world. Sanctify them through Thy truth:
Thy word is truth" (John 17:16-17).
We cannot let Satan deceive us by not doing our own study and prove all things by the
Word of God.
