There will come a time when God will send a deluding influence and those that are not truly in the Lord will believe the lie.
There will be no hope for them..
2 Thessalonians 2:11-12
For this reason God will send upon them a deluding influence so that they will believe what is false, in order that they all may be judged who did not believe the truth, but took pleasure in wickedness.
They will not think they are believing a lie. God will harden their hearts....Just like Pharoah. As in the days of Moses.
As in the days of Noah........We are there!
Philippians 2:12-13
So then, my beloved, just as you have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your salvation with fear and trembling; for it is God who is at work in you, both to will and to work for His good pleasure.
Do not tell people you love them if you do not warn them of the dangers of sin. Many tell others how much Jesus loves them but they ignore the warnings in the Word of God, They fail to warn them of the danger that leads to eternal suffering. Why? why would anyone do that? Because they don't love them at all. If they loved others then they would bring the whole truth in love so that others would truly be saved instead of being deceived into hell.
And He was passing through from one city and village to another, teaching, and proceeding on His way to Jerusalem. And someone said to Him, “Lord, are there just a few who are being saved?” And He said to them, “Strive to enter through the narrow door; for many, I tell you, will seek to enter and will not be able. Once the head of the house gets up and shuts the door, and you begin to stand outside and knock on the door, saying, ‘Lord, open up to us!’ then He will answer and say to you, ‘I do not know where you are from. Then you will begin to say, ‘We ate and drank in Your presence, and You taught in our streets’; and He will say, ‘I tell you, I do not know where you are from; depart from Me, all you evildoers.’ In that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth when you see Abraham and Isaac and Jacob and all the prophets in the kingdom of God, but yourselves being thrown out. And they will come from east and west and from north and south, and will recline at the table in the kingdom of God. And behold, some are last who will be first and some are first who will be last.”
Psalm 4
Answer me when I call, O God of my righteousness!
You have relieved me in my distress;
Be gracious to me and hear my prayer.
O sons of men, how long will my honor become a reproach?
How long will you love what is worthless and aim at deception? Selah.
But know that the Lord has set apart the godly man for Himself;
The Lord hears when I call to Him.
Tremble, and do not sin;
Meditate in your heart upon your bed, and be still. Selah.
Offer the sacrifices of righteousness,
And trust in the Lord.
Many are saying, “Who will show us any good?”
Lift up the light of Your countenance upon us, O Lord!
You have put gladness in my heart,
More than when their grain and new wine abound.
In peace I will both lie down and sleep,
For You alone, O Lord, make me to dwell in safety.
I tell you, no, but unless you repent, you will all likewise perish.
Halloween is a pagan holiday promoting Satanism, idolatry, witchcraft, sorcery, necromancy, and the occult. None of these things should exist in the life of a Christian! They are spiritually dangerous, and should be avoided at all costs.
What does the Bible have to say about the idea of Halloween, and the activities often associated with this pagan festival? I refer you to
Deuteronomy 18:9-13 - "When thou art come into the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee, thou shalt not learn to do after the abominations (idolatry) of those nations (pagans). There shall NOT be found among you any one that maketh his son or his daughter to pass through the fire, or that useth divination, or an observer of times, or an enchanter, or a witch, or a charmer, or a consulter with familiar spirits, or a wizard, or a necromancer (those who talk with the spirits of the dead). For ALL that do these things are an abomination unto the LORD: and because of these abominations the LORD thy God doth drive them out from before thee. Thou shalt be upright with the LORD thy God."
Final note: Did you know that October 31st is considered by Satanists to be one of their most important days of the year? So please don't give glory to the Devil by actively participating in this pagan festival. Give Glory to God Alone through Jesus Christ! via John C. — with Nadine Panday.
“In everything, therefore, treat people the same way you want them to treat you, for this is the Law and the Prophets.
The Narrow and Wide Gates
“Enter through the narrow gate; for the gate is wide and the way is broad that leads to destruction, and there are many who enter through it. For the gate is small and the way is narrow that leads to life, and there are few who find it.
A Tree and Its Fruit
“Beware of the false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly are ravenous wolves.
For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
"But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal."
Some of us work ourselves to the bone so we can have millions. Is it really necessary? The scripture says we need to lay up our treasures in heaven. Laying them on earth is pointless and useless. Helping out a needy person or helping out our brother or neighbour without expecting anything in return is more fruitful.
(1 John 5:11 KJV)
And this is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son.

I am the living bread which came down from heaven: if any man eat of this bread, he shall live for ever: and the bread that I will give is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world.
(1 John 5:20 KJV)
And we know that the Son of God is come, and hath given us an understanding, that we may know him that is true, and we are in him that is true, {even} in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and eternal life.
(Psalm 22:26 KJV)
The meek shall eat and be satisfied: they shall praise the Lord that seek him: your heart shall live for ever.
(Psalm 37:18 KJV)
The Lord knoweth the days of the upright: and their inheritance shall be for ever.
(Psalm 23:6 KJV)
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever.
(Psalm 49:15 KJV)
But God will redeem my soul from the power of the grave: for he shall receive me. Selah.
(1 Corinthians 15:54-55 KJV)
(54) So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory. (55) O death, where {is} thy sting? O grave, where {is} thy victory?
(John 11:25-26 KJV)
(25) Jesus said unto her, I am the resur- rection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live: (26) And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Believest thou this?
(John 6:27 KJV)
Labour not for the meat which perisheth, but for that meat which endureth unto everlasting life, which the Son of man shall give unto you: for him hath God the Father sealed.
(John 10:27-28 KJV)
(27) My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me: (28) And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any {man} pluck them out of my hand.
(John 4:14 KJV)
But whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life.
Dear friends, don't be discouraged with the present situation. For we have hope in Christ Jesus, who had promised us that in any situation He will always be there for us. Jesus loves and cares for you, all you need to do is to have faith in Him and commit your life to Him. He will never let you down. Be blessed in Jesus name. Amen
