Are You Prepared for the End?

Many think they are and are going to be so shocked when it is all over that they missed it all because they were manipulated by the world and could not see the truth if it stood right in front of them.
I was working on the net and my daughter was playing a game and I heard the song and the words and asked her if she knew what she was listening to?
She said, "Yes, it is Japanese and it is in a game called Final Fantasy." It was not Japanese, it was Latin and very Satanic.
This is just more proof of how Satan is using technology to get to us and especially our children. People will buy this game and not think anything of it, but it is seeding a lie in Latin into all who listen to it. Our youth, and even some older people, are spending countless hours playing games that promote killing.
The television series Revelation on NBC is a lie and distortion of the truth. This is not the first time. A while back one of the networks did a mini-series or movie about Genesis which was so messed up and untruthful that I could not keep track of what was going on.
The networks, movies industry, television, and news media are in business to make money; they do not care if it is true or not as long as it makes them money.
Even in The Passion done by Mel Gibson there are things that are not in scripture, such as when Jesus was praying the night before His crucifixion Jesus and Satan talking were shown talking. It never happened. It is in not one of the Gospels. It is Gibson's interpretation, but people will commit it to memory it and not recall from where it came. When they read the Bible and do not find what they remember they will believe the Bible is wrong. not what they remember.
I have already had to deal with people about movies such as the Ten Commandments with Charles Heston and the versions of Hollywood's interpretation of Jesus and His life.
If Hollywood or television does it, and it deals with the Bible, you can count on it being wrong anywhere from as much as 10 percent, as in The Passion, to 70 percent, as in the Revelation television series.
When you consider how many lies we are told that go against the knowledge of God or something we read as true in the Bible, and include what Hollywood and television adds to the mix, it is a wonder anyone could ever tell the difference between what is true and a lie, again.
Can't you see how Satan is doing this to us, misleading us, manipulating our technology and anything else he can to deceive us and keep us from the truth? Now on top of all this add the fact that out of all the English versions of the Bible the King James, not New King James, is the only one even close to what is in the original languages as truth.
I have said this before, but it bears repeating: the difference between the original languages of the Bible and English is about as close as New York is to London.
The problem is that Greek for the New Testament and Hebrew for the Old are very different languages than English and anything translated from them to English loses a lot in meaning, and then add to that, the differences between American English and British English today.
Examples: 1) In the UK lift is an elevator, but in the US it usually means a ride in a car, or pick up an object; 2) In UK a solicitor is a aawyer, and in the US it is a door-to-door salesman.
There are many more examples, but you get the idea. Now add to this that the King James Version was translated nearly 400 years ago and the English spoken in the UK then compared to today, is as different as the US to UK English is today. Now you start to see the problems in reading the Bible in English. Satan has manipulated us, and our languages, so that we would lose more and more in translating from Greek and Hebrew into English. It you are one who does not believe in Satan then you have already fallen for one of his lies and he is manipulating you and deceiving you as he did Eve.
Most, if not all, of the English version Bibles today, other than the King James and maybe the Amplified, have errors in translation due to the way they were done. The New International Version (NIV), as most are, was translated by a committee of people who voted on what the word should be when translated, and in doing so changed the meaning of many verses, making the NIV one of the worst, right after the Living Bible.
Here is an example of the difference in the King James of 1612 AD and today:
Job 1
8. And the Lord said unto Satan, Hast thou considered my servant Job, that there is none like him in the earth, a perfect and an upright man, one that feareth God, and escheweth evil?
Re-read the verse above, is God pointing Job out to Satan?
Now read the literal version of the same verse:
8.
|0559| And said
|3068| Yahweh
|0000| to
|7854| Satan,
|7760| Have you set
|3824| your heart
|5650| on My servant
|0347| Job?
|3588| For
|0369| not is {any}
|0000| like him
|0776| in the earth,
|0376| a man
|8535| perfect
|3477| and upright,
|3373| revering
|0430| God
|5186| and turning away
|7451| from evil.
Actually both say the same thing, God is questioning Satan what his intent with Job is, but because the question mark is not in the King James today it confuses us. In 1612 AD they read it correctly but over nearly 400 years English language has changed and so has how we read the verse.
This is one of many mistakes we make in reading the Bible.
John 14
26. But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.
God saw ahead and knew this day would come and this is just one more reason why it is so important we hear from Him. Jesus said we are to be taught all things by the Spirit.
Now if you hear from God, then you take each verse to Him and have Him reveal to you what it says and all of its meaning, the fullness of each verse.
Satan will use anything and everything he can to divide you from God, and he will lie, deceive you and then manipulate you with his lies.
Matthew 12
25. And Jesus knew their thoughts, and said unto them, Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation; and every city or house divided against itself shall not stand:
Satan starts by planting a thought which is a lie in one who can reach the most people, then lets us take it from there. And after awhile we add to it, and by the time we get through with it, it goes from an anthill to a mountain.
2 Corinthians 10
5. Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ;
Based on the above verse we are to control our thoughts, because thoughts and imaginations come from one of two sources only, and if you do not realize this then Satan can manipulate you and deceive you. Our thoughts are either forced on us by the world (Satan) or we seek them of God.
Matthew 6
33. But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.
Seek first His thoughts before you do anything else or you are doomed because otherwise you are manipulated by thoughts of the world. This explains how so many people especially parents, do such horrific acts to their children such as murder, abuse, etc.
They get a thought, believing that it is their own (Satan supplies the evil ideas), dwell on it, truly making it theirs. If they are not aware that the thought came from Satan and don’t realize it is an evil thought, or they are not strong enough to cast it down, in time they will act on it.
Hebrews 11
6. But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.
When you understand that 99.9 percent of the world does not realize this about the thoughts then you realize that 99.9 percent are puppets of Satan and do not even realize it. Now take a minute and think about the world today. Political correctness is more for the world and less for God and, actually, is a lot against God. Abortion, wars, tsunamis and other acts of nature, have not been seen in such volume and as close to each other in the history of mankind.
It is like in the television series Revelation in which they tell us that make it out that we will know evil, antichrist, etc., because they will say and do things to point themselves out. The truth is, they will not recognize him because those who watch this show (even those who don’t but believe what they have been taught) are looking for something apparently evil and vile. In fact, we are so used to such evil acts in the world that the antichrist and his followers will not stand out, instead will be accepted as we are. They will not allow themselves to be seen as being a part of evil.
Even when Jesus came the first time He was not recognized by those who knew what to look for because they looked for Him in the wrong way, as a physical king and not a Spiritual king.
Do not be as the Jews of 2000 years ago, deceived by what the world dictates. Know God, have a relationship with Him so you will know Him, and He can guide you and you will know the lie from the truth.
