There were also false prophets among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you. They will secretly introduce destructive heresies, even denying the sovereign Lord who bought them—bringing swift destruction on themselves. Many will follow their depraved conduct and will bring the way of truth into disrepute. In their greed these teachers will exploit you with fabricated stories. Their condemnation has long been hanging over them, and their destruction has not been sleeping.
2 Peter 2:1-3 NIV
Some ancient passages read like current events.
As history unfolds before us prophetically, the enemy’s end game is revealed.
I’m all too often surprised when people refuse to see the revelation of events foretold so long ago and still choose ignorance over acknowledgement.
Schooled to believe that faith in God is a weakness instead of means to life everlasting, they buy the lie and deny the power of our Creator to rescue from the very veil that blinds them.
Christianity has become little more than a conspiracy theory.
It’s in these moments that we need to desperately pursue those around us who have been misled and penned in as sheep for slaughter.
Don’t give up. Earnestly present your case and reason for the hope that once rescued you from the same destiny.
Knowing how it may end for some should be the beginning of your prayer for those who may still follow Christ and live.
