REFERENCE:
Isaiah 53:9
He was
assigned a grave with the wicked, and with the rich in his death, though he had
done no violence, nor was any deceit
in his mouth.
COMMENT:
This is a
prophecy about the Lord Jesus Christ recorded by Isaiah the prophet as it was
revealed to him by God during Isaiah’s ministry between 740 and 680 BC. Exactly
what was prophesied was literally fulfilled by Jesus
when he came in Israel about 2000 years ago. Many bible prophesies have been fulfilled
and it is adequate proof that the bible unlike all other religious books is
inspired by God himself, as it claims in 2 Timothy 3:16-17.
Jesus Christ
is the exact opposite to the Anti-Christ who is the master of deception. The
Anti-Christ wins the hearts of many on arrival on the scene, due to his ability
to negotiate for peace. All are crying for peace everywhere, even London the
financial capital of the world. He will
also do miracles, even calling for fire from heaven. Many will follow him
thinking he is the real Jesus Christ. The bible refers to him as the man of
lawlessness in 2 Thessalonians 2:3 because of the havoc he will cause in the
whole world. He will kill more than Hitler, Stalin, Mao and Amin combined. The fundamentalist
Muslims will look like school boys compared to him. His real identity will be revealed later after
causing untold suffering in the entire world.
The
Anti-Christ will have an assistant whose title according to the bible is False
Prophet, who will be a religious man. He will pretend to act like the Holy
Spirit, but will glorify the Anti-Christ. This will complete the false trinity
of Satan, Anti-Christ and False Prophet.
The False
Prophet among other activities, will perform miracles. The Anti-Christ will be assassinated
in the middle of his career, and the world will be shocked to see him raised
from death by the False Prophet. This
will deceive more and more people. The believers in the world then, will be
deceived and follow him. He will succeed in ecumenical movement which is busy
today uniting all faiths. The World Council of Churches, Chrislam and such like
organizations will have a field day.
Deception is
the key in all these activities, and Jesus Christ is the only one to choose,
because no deceit was found in his mouth according to the scripture under reference.
PRAYER: Holy
Spirit! Awaken all the Christian leaders so that we can detect deception.
