EMPOWERED BY THE GREAT DECEIVER (REV. REV. 12:9+), HE PRODUCES THE FRUIT OF DECEPTION. THE POWER OF THIS DECEPTION WILL BE UNIQUE IN HISTORY. JESUS SUGGESTED THAT ONLY THOSE PROTECTED BY THE HOLY SPIRIT WOULD BE ABLE TO RESIST HIS ABILITY TO CONVINCE. “FOR FALSE CHRISTS AND FALSE PROPHETS WILL RISE AND SHOW GREAT SIGNS AND WONDERS TO DECEIVE, IF POSSIBLE, EVEN THE ELECT. SEE, I HAVE TOLD YOU BEFOREHAND” (MTT. MAT. 24:24-25 CF. MARK MARK 13:22).
