Transcript
- 0:13God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Therefore,
- 0:19will not we fear, though the earth be removed, and though the
- 0:23mountains be carried into the midst of the sea, though the waters there are
- 0:27roar and be troubled, though the mountains shake with the swelling. Thereof there
- 0:33is a river the streams whereof shall make glad. The City of God,
- 0:39the holy place of the Tabernacles of the Most High God, is in the
- 0:45midst of her. She shall not be moved. God shall help her,
- 0:51and that right early. Thank God for his place of refuge for the righteous.
- 1:00The name of the Lord, the Bible tells us, is a strong
- 1:03tower. The righteous run into it, and they are safe. Amen,
- 1:08there is safety in Jesus, safety in His arms, safety under the shadow
- 1:15of the wings of the Almighty, in whom we put our trusts. Father,
- 1:21we thank you for this glorious blessed day, this day that you have
- 1:23made we shall rejoice and be glad in You, the God of our salvation.
- 1:27We pray today that your word, your quickening word, will take effect
- 1:34in our hearts. Lord to a man appoint us, and anoint us,
- 1:38and direct us, and a man guide us into the truth, a man
- 1:45that you have already declared, Oh Father, that we will a man become
- 1:49sensitive to the voice of the Spirit of the Living God, that we may
- 1:53be that people called by your name, God be glorified today in the earth
- 1:59in your peace people everywhere, in Jesus' name, we pray and give thanks.
- 2:04Amen and Amen. All right, God, bless you again. We
- 2:07welcome you once more to this another edition of End Time Revival Ministries USA podcast.
- 2:15I am your host, Pastor al Zachary, and today we continue with
- 2:20part six of Pandemic of Lies, Pandemic of Lies, and today we're going
- 2:29to focus on the delusion. Amen, We're going to focus on the delusion.
- 2:37The state of biblical reason for people to be swept away into the delusion
- 2:44is that they refuse to receive the love of the truth. And the Bible
- 2:49tells us this very plainly explicitly in the Book of Tewod Thessalonians, chapter number
- 2:55two, verses nine through twelve, from which I'm going to reading right now
- 3:01two Thessalonians, chapter two, verses nine through twelve. The stated biblical reason
- 3:08for a people being swept away into delusion the coming of the lawless one.
- 3:16Verse number nine is according to the working of Satan, with all power,
- 3:23signs and lying wonders, and with all unrighteous deception among those who perish because
- 3:32they did not receive the love of the Truth, that they might be saved.
- 3:42And for this reason God shall send them strong delusion, that they should
- 3:47believe the lie, that they all may be condemned who did not believe the
- 3:57truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness. Undeniably, Church of the Living God,
- 4:06people of God, people everywhere. We are living in the midst of a
- 4:12season of lawlessness that is threatening to usher in an unprecedented but yet very foreseeable
- 4:24future of destruction, despair, and death that is unimaginable, that is perhaps
- 4:33unthinkable to this very generation. You see, the power of the delusion is
- 4:42such that we have far too many people living in denial. They are in
- 4:49first and foremost, the denial of the reality of truth existing, that truth
- 4:57is true and real, and and that this truth emanates from the very God,
- 5:03who is the very embodiment and source of truth. This is evident in
- 5:11the way that people live and act and carry on in their lives with no
- 5:16regard to the law of God, with no fear of being deceived in whatever
- 5:21it is that they have chosen to place their faith and hope and confidence in.
- 5:28We need look low further than the lawlessness that is so much again to
- 5:34see and very evident in our present world and culture today. As I say
- 5:42that very clearly in the very last episode as a matter of fact of this
- 5:46series, the only hope that we have, and then the other hope that
- 5:54we have. I'm speaking in terms of us being here on this earth,
- 6:00the rapture of the Church, the taking, the snatching away of the saints
- 6:03of God. Of course, we know when that happens, all of our
- 6:06troubles are over in that instant, in that moment, in the twinkling of
- 6:12an eye, Paul writes about this, the trump of God, the dead
- 6:15in Christ will be raised incorruptible in those of us who are alive and remaining
- 6:21at the coming of the Lord. We're gonna be caught up together with them
- 6:25in the clouds to meet the Lord in their and so shall we forever be
- 6:28with the Lord. Amen. That's the snatching away, the taking away of
- 6:34God's Church, God's people. Amen. But it is evident, Amen,
- 6:42in our culture, and when we look around. Amen, we see that
- 6:46the only hope I believe that the only hope that we have, Amen,
- 6:51it is to have an infusion a man of the truth of God's Word in
- 7:00our lives. In this culture. We need revival stated very clearly, I
- 7:06mean we need we need, we need salvation, We need God's divine intervention
- 7:13if we're going to survive, if we're going to overcome in this present pandemic
- 7:17of lives in which we are living. God's word is truth, and it
- 7:24is what sets the captive free. It is what frees man from the bitter
- 7:30bondage of lies, of deception, of delusion. On the other hand,
- 7:36though, ladies and gentlemen, if we do not repent, and I speak
- 7:42corporately, that's the church, and those of us that are even not those
- 7:46those that those of us in the church, those that are outside of the
- 7:50church. If we do not repent, the Bible tells us first and foremost
- 7:56that judgment begins at the house of God. So we need to repent also
- 8:01those of us in the church. Amen. If we do not repent,
- 8:05if we do not return to the Word of God as our moral compass by
- 8:15which we govern our lives, then I will submit to you emphatically on the
- 8:24authority of the Word of God. Amen, on what history has taught us
- 8:31or should teach us. I will say that the fate of this present culture
- 8:37is destined for destruction, doom, and death if we do not repent,
- 8:46because we cannot continue on the path that we're traveling the trajectory of the lawlessness
- 8:54that is happening in our world. The wages of sin is death. There
- 9:01has to be there is a price that is paid. If you do not
- 9:05accept the price that Jesus Christ paid. The only other pricet is death.
- 9:11That's what the Bible teaches. The wages of sin is death. Lawlessness,
- 9:16delusion, and reprobation all go hand in hand within a culture that has departed
- 9:22and divorced itself from truth. There is a pathway to the delusion in which
- 9:31we find ourselves. Ladies and gentlemen, we understand that man, the Bible
- 9:37teaches this man is born in sin. Man is born as an enemy of
- 9:41God, a man he is extraged from God, he is running from God.
- 9:45There is none that does good, no, not one but the power.
- 9:50And this is a beautiful hope. This is a great salvation that God
- 9:54has provided the power in the presence of the Holy Spirit of God, and
- 9:58his eternal truth is here, and it is here right now in this present
- 10:03world to correct our waywardness and to lead us away from error into truth,
- 10:13away from the delusion, into a blessed hope that fades out a way.
- 10:22Now, please understand that God does not arbitrarily or capriciously turn people over to
- 10:28be reprobate. The Word of God tells God. Listen by the way God
- 10:33understands. He remembers our He knows that we are dust, he knows that
- 10:35we are frail, he knows that we are fleshly, he knows that we
- 10:41are his enemies by nature. He knows all of these things. That's why
- 10:45he has compassion. That's why he's long suffering. Amen, That's why he's
- 10:50so patient. That's why he's so tolerant. And the Word of God tells
- 10:56us explicitly what it is that causes man to be come and reprobate. It
- 11:03is unthankfulness, It is vanity. It is pride in a foolish heart,
- 11:09a heart that will not give glory to God that is due to him.
- 11:16This is what causes man to become Reprobate Romans chapter one. Again. For
- 11:24those of you who are familiar with your Bibles, I want to take you
- 11:28there again once more. The Bible tells us to begin in at verse number
- 11:31eighteen. I'll be reading from the King James version. For the wrath of
- 11:33God is revealed from Heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men who hold the
- 11:48truth in unrighteousness. This is deliberate truth suppression. This is deliberate truth suppression,
- 11:56as we're going to see clearly as the apostle Paul reads the indictment that
- 12:01is against man in his rebellion against God. Verse number nineteen tells us,
- 12:05because that which may be known of God is manifest in them, for God
- 12:13has showed it unto them. In other words, we know, we know
- 12:16what is right, we know what is wrong. Micah chapter number six.
- 12:20The Bible tells us God has shown the old man what is good. He's
- 12:26shown you. We know it. Amen. We have the amen knowledge of
- 12:31both good and evil. But our way is bent toward evil. The Bible
- 12:39tells us verse twenty, for the invisible things of Him, that is God,
- 12:43from the creation of the world, are clearly seen being understood by the
- 12:48things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead. So that they
- 12:54are without excuse, because that when they knew God, God, they glorified
- 13:01him, not as God. Neither were thankful listen to these indictments, but
- 13:07became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened. Professing themselves
- 13:16to be wise, they became fools and changed the glory of the uncorruptible God
- 13:26into an image made like to corruptible man and to birds, four footed beasts,
- 13:35and creeping things. Wherefore, listen what the Bible says. God also
- 13:41gave them up to uncleanness through the lust of their own hearts to dishonor their
- 13:56own bodies between themselves who changed the truth of God into a lie. And
- 14:07that's where it is, Ladies and gentlemen, in our rebellion against God,
- 14:11we call God a liar. We call the word of God a lie.
- 14:18We call the truth that God has spoken a lie. Because we know better,
- 14:24we know how to govern ourselves, live our lives, do our own
- 14:31thing. So in so doing we change the truth of God into a lie,
- 14:37and end up in ideology. And listen to what the Bible says worshiping
- 14:43and serving the creature more than the creator, who is blessed forever a man
- 14:50for this cause, here's our reason here. It is because of these things,
- 14:54Ladies and gentlemen, listen what the Bible says verse twenty six. For
- 14:58this cause, God gave them up unto vile affections. For even their women
- 15:07did change the natural use into that which is against nature, lesbianism. And
- 15:16likewise also the men homosexuality, leaving the natural use of the woman burned in
- 15:26their luss one toward another, men with men working that which is unseemly same
- 15:35sex relationships, and the Bible says, and receiving in themselves that recompense of
- 15:43their era, which was meet or do to them verse twenty eight. And
- 15:52even listen what the Bible says. And even as they did not like to
- 15:58reat God in their knowledge, that means, ladies and gentlemen, that they
- 16:06knew. They know that God is in their hearts and minds. His word
- 16:10is present, His spirit is moving. His spirit is calling men everywhere to
- 16:14repentance. Jesus is he says. Behold, I stand at the door and
- 16:18knock. He's knocking. He's calling. Oh, yes, he is amen.
- 16:23His Holy Spirit is working in this world. But they do not like
- 16:29to retain God in their knowledge. We all have the knowledge of God.
- 16:34We know a man. The Bible says, that which may be known of
- 16:38him has been clearly revealed to us. Because they did not like to retain
- 16:49God in their knowledge, the Bible says, listen, God gave them over
- 16:59to a reprobate mind to do those things which are not convenient, being filled
- 17:08with all unrighteousness, fornication. It's not just homosexuality and lesbianism, sane sex
- 17:17relations, ladies and gentlemen. It's all unrighteousness. Any form of fornication is
- 17:26unrighteous, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness, full of envy, murder, debate,
- 17:38deceit, malignity, haters of God despiteful, inventors of evil things,
- 17:55disobedient to parents without understanding, breakers without natural affection, who, knowing the
- 18:07judgment of God that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not
- 18:18only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them. Whew.
- 18:29This is as vividly descriptive as it gets in portraying the kind of culture
- 18:37that depart from the truth of God. The separation of ourselves from the word
- 18:44of God, which is by the way, designed to transform us. Is
- 18:49the direct causation of the mind of a man becoming reprobate. When we cast
- 18:57off the truth of God, we refuse to retain God in our knowledge,
- 19:03his word, his presence, his power. That is the causation, ladies
- 19:15and gentlemen of the mind becoming reprobate. God then gives them over, He
- 19:22gives them up. The word of God has the cure that we need for
- 19:29our pride, for our vanity, for the inevitable ingratitude that will overtake us
- 19:38when we are becoming idolatrous and unthankful, vain in our imaginations. The word
- 19:45of God, the Word of God. And by the way, again,
- 19:52this is not a new reality in man's relationship with his creator. It started
- 19:56from the very beginning after the fall of man. And every single time man
- 20:03is led away by his own desires, it ends in massive destruction and death.
- 20:11And we have examples of the judgment of God as well as the devastating
- 20:17consequences when we are governed by godless leaders who will then wreak havoc on a
- 20:26people of people who are steeped in their idolatry, in their witchcraft, in
- 20:30their sexual immorality, in their worship of demons, in their departure from the
- 20:37truth righteousness. The Bible says very clearly, it's what exalts a nation.
- 20:42Don't blame it all on the leaders, because the leaders are manifestation of the
- 20:48hearts and minds of the people. That's how leaders rise up. That's how
- 20:53they rise up because of ungodliness and unrighteousness in the hearts and minds and practices
- 21:02of the people. The delusion that we are living in, that we have
- 21:11again so prevalent in this pandemic of lives of these last days, is already
- 21:18very much. I mean, it is working. It's working over time,
- 21:26and it is swallowing truth forsaken, forsaken victims into the depths of darkness and
- 21:34despair. And we have people all over the planet who have already been taken
- 21:41in by this demonic force of delusion. People all over the planet are unaware,
- 21:48they're they're they're not even aware they have that that they have just undergone
- 21:55a massive deception in an unprecedented and raising an attempt to deceive, as the
- 22:02Bible says, the very elect but it's not possible, thank God, because
- 22:07God is our refuge and strength. Just three and a half years ago,
- 22:11four years ago, almost we underwent and we're still in it. We underwent
- 22:19a man made, a man made pandemic that came straight out of the pits
- 22:26of hell. And I'll say it again, I'll stand on it because it
- 22:29was filled with lies and fear and deception and delusion. And people are still
- 22:36captivated by that delusion. The Bible says, God is not giving us the
- 22:40spirit of fear, but of power and a sound mind with the love comes
- 22:45from God does not have us, and He does not desire for us to
- 22:52live in fear, not even of our lives, our immortal lives. We're
- 23:00all going to die. Have you read the Bible? Have you accepted that
- 23:03truth that you appointed to die? But we as a people, as a
- 23:15civilization, as a nation, as a planet of people, for the most
- 23:22part, the masses of people were swept away in a massive deception that came
- 23:33right out of the delusion fear. The Bible says, fear has torment,
- 23:45and people write to this very day of being tormented by the demonic forces that
- 23:52are lying to them, deceiving them and taking them into captivity. Many people
- 24:02died because they were living in fear, the very fear of death, and
- 24:08the very fear of death caused them to lose their lives. They didn't trust
- 24:15God, they didn't believe God, and even the people in the church did
- 24:22not believe God. That a virus was more powerful, is more powerful,
- 24:30is more potent than the God of creation, the God that they sing about
- 24:37in their pews, the God that they so called pray to and worship and
- 24:44serve. They didn't believe him. They believed the report of these demonic forces
- 24:52of the delusion, the delusion that came straight out of the pit of hell,
- 25:03that evil spirit of deception, fear and torment, ladies and gentlemen,
- 25:10it is now right now, right now, right now, right now,
- 25:14finally embedded within the minds of just too many people. And they are ripe
- 25:23for the final strong delusion that is yet to come. And I'm here to
- 25:30tell you, ladies and gentlemen, that it is coming. And please do
- 25:37not forget where and why the final strong delusion will come from. It will
- 25:47come from God in his judgment upon all who refuse to receive the love of
- 25:56the truth. Let me read it for you again. Second Thessalonians. When
- 26:00the Antichrist comes, when the man of sin is revealed, those who are
- 26:06left behind, those who did not believe the report of God, those who
- 26:10refuse to repent, those who refuse to obey the truth. When the lawless
- 26:15one comes, according to the working of Satan, the Bible tells us he's
- 26:22coming with all power, signs and lying wonders, and with all unrighteous deception,
- 26:30and he's going to have success. The Bible says it is going to
- 26:37be because they did not receive the love of the truth that they might be
- 26:45saved. And you know what's going to happen during that period of time,
- 26:48Ladies and gentlemen, when the Antichrist is here, when the man of sin
- 26:53has been revealed. Don't think that you're going to all of a sudden have
- 26:57an epiphany and have courage and have boldness to stand up against the delusion,
- 27:11because you won't be able to. And God is going to see to it
- 27:15that you will not, because you won't be able to anyway. But the
- 27:18Bible says God is going to send them strong delusion. God is going to
- 27:26allow the demonic forces of hell to just overpower you to overtake you, to
- 27:33overwhelm you, to fully captivate your mind and your heart. Why because you
- 27:42won't receive the truth. And I've already stated it's the Bible is very clear
- 27:48about this. If you don't take the truth, the only other option,
- 27:56the only other alternative, the only thing that is left for you, is
- 28:02the lie. God is going to see to it. He's going to open
- 28:14the flood gates of the demonic forces of hell and let them loose and let
- 28:21them have And one of the reasons why this is going to happen, by
- 28:22the way, ladies and gentlemen, because if you read earlier in this same
- 28:26chapter two of Second Thessalonians, the Holy Spirit is going to be taken out
- 28:33of the world. He is the restraining force. The Church is going to
- 28:37be taken out of the world, the rapture of the church. When that
- 28:42happens, ladies and gentlemen, do you think that we have lawlessness? Now?
- 28:48You think we have rioting wickedness? You think we have that? Now,
- 29:00wait until the Holy Spirit is taken out of this world. Wait until
- 29:07the Church is raptured away when there's no one here praying and interceding, when
- 29:15there's no one here praying against the powers of the wicked one, the evil
- 29:22one. When the Holy Spirit is no longer here in the earth restraining the
- 29:32power of that wicked one, what do you think is going to happen?
- 29:40You think you're going to have the strength, the power, the faith to
- 29:48overcome and not take the mark of the beast. Do you think that you're
- 29:55going to be able to resist him? Are you going to line up to
- 30:00you have your head taken off for not receiving the mark of the beast?
- 30:03When just four years ago, three years ago, two and a half years
- 30:11ago, two years ago, there was little to no resistance against the delusion
- 30:23that was cast upon this world, the lies, the fear, the propaganda,
- 30:30the coersion, the tyranny. You think you're gonna have the strength to
- 30:37resist when that evil, wicked one comes and is materialized, incarnate in the
- 30:53body of a man with all power and signs and lying wonders, and with
- 30:59all deceivableness of unrighteousness, you think you're going to be able to withstand?
- 31:06No, you won't. God says He's going to send a strong delusion that
- 31:18they all should believe the lie, and that they all will be condemned who
- 31:27did not believe the truth but had pleasure in their unrighteousness. I beg of
- 31:37you today. I plead with you today, if you are yet in your
- 31:42sins, in your rebellion against God, I pray even now that God will
- 31:52speak to your heart, that God will move upon your heart, that the
- 31:59Holy Spirit will bring conviction to your heart, so that you will believe the
- 32:04truth, receive the love of the Truth, so that you will be saved
- 32:12and delivered from the wrath that is to come. Make no mistake about it.
- 32:16The delusion is already here. The spirit of the Antichrist is already at
- 32:22work. And your only hope to escape is the truth. Jesus said,
- 32:31you will know it and it'll set you free. He is truth, the
- 32:37very embodiment of truth, and he whom the sun sets free is free.
- 32:44Indeed, Father, we pray today that somebody somewhere will hear the voice of
- 32:50the Savior of Jesus, the Christ, knocking at the door of their heart,
- 32:55so that they will open, so that they will turn, so that
- 33:00they will repent and fall on their knees and be covered under the shadow of
- 33:09your almighty wings. God be glorified today God be magnified today. We give
- 33:17you praise, glory, and honor that is due only to you. Amen
- 33:23and Amen.
