Satan's Scare Tactics!

• Messages sorted by:[ date ][ thread ][ subject ][ author ]

Well, ya'll did not burn me in effigy on my last post, so I think
I will tackle another.  Try to love me anyway.  Dottie Rambo
wrote a song many years ago with the words, '...neither fear
nor persuasion can draw me to Christ but love really conquers
my soul.'  Scare tactics are not out of love for the lost.  And, 
oddly enough, scare tactics are from satan, which he uses
to confuse.

I know nothing about the technical aspect of the biochip 
fracas but I do know the Lord ways.  Or at least I am trying 
to learn His ways. 

A man went around this area some months ago and he was
showing how biochips are going to be used to put the mark
of the beast on God's innocent people.  Let's look at that from
this perspective.  This man goes around teaching everybody
that biochips are the tool of the beast in these last days.  He
must have been very convincing for a couple I work with
talked about his lesson when he came to their church.  He 
is very convincing.

Now there is a lost person there listening to this and is very
impressed with his knowledge and satan whispers in his
ear, "You need to beware of those biochips, for that is how
you will be given the mark of the beast."  All of the factors
together will be convincing.  This lost person decides to be
a part of this group of people who get saved and then keep
a wary eye on biochips.  

While they are watching the biochips and even getting into
the debates about them, they gain a false confidence in the
fact that they have the key to safety.  Don't take the biochip
and you are home free!

Meanwhile, some smooth talking televangelist comes along
and adjures you to pledge your physical and spiritual support
to him, gets you to become saved by accepting Christ as
your personal savior, and some of them may even remind you
to keep your eye on the biochips.  With your attention set upon
the biochips, your leader is setting you up to be turned over
to the beast and he did not have to get you to come near a 
biochip to do it.  

It is sad to see God's chosen people become absorbed in
controversies and get their eyes and hearts off focus of the
Lord Jesus.  Is He of none effect?  Can we not trust Jesus
with our lives, or eternity?  Is Jesus crucified in vain if we take 
a biochip?  My grandmother in her eighties, was sorely 
convinced that radio would be the means.  I have a 
sister who is convinced that computers will be the means
to get you to accept the mark.  

The beast must deceive you into giving of yourselves freely 
and your loyality is what he needs most.  Do you really think
that satan is going to say to you, "Heads up, boy, I am going
to use the biochips (radio; computers; etc.) to deceive you
to my persuasion."  Jesus is still Lord and it is necessary for
us to continue to trust in Him all the way home!  Please. 

If they have to put those things in beneath my skin, then 
that's it!  This duck is shot completely out the water!  Are
you out yo' mind, devil!  No needles and no knives!   ;) Ernie..
