Why is it important to know who the Antichrist is?
Genuine question: Why is it important to know who the anti-Christ is? I’m confused why this is important for Christians to know. I don’t believe that this changes anything that we are told to do in our lives by God.
Thank you, for your question. I’ll give you a thorough answer in this response, but I have already made more videos with in-depth answers that should give you an even better understanding, like in the video: What is the Antichrist? https://youtu.be/lWW_QpVaX_Y
The short answer is: God would not have sent me to preach this if it made no difference. God would not have contacted me and multiple other people about this to share with the world if you were not required to change and act on this information.
I will give you the more in-depth answer here:
First, the Bible discusses how the Antichrist is here to deceive people and tempt people into joining his cult and lead people into hell with him. the Bible discusses how even Christians will be tempted and deceived into following him. I have a video interview on my website of a woman who was possessed by the Antichrist, Jared Leto, and she was practically worshiping him as a god. She became obsessed with him through this spiritual possession and soon the entire world will likely experience this. She barely escaped it. She was a dedicated Christian and Bible teacher - one of the best Christians I have ever met - and she almost fell into the grasp of the Antichrist. So, what chance do you and everyone else have who wonder around unknowingly when one of the most dedicated Christians barely made it out from Satan’s grasp? She didn’t know he was the Antichrist and because of that, she had a very difficult time resisting it, but now we can warn people and they can be better prepared. What chance does a person less dedicated to God have if one of the best Christians hardly made it?
It’s our job to warn people of dangers, especially if God tells us to warn people, like how God instructs us in Ezekiel 33, that if we do not warn people, then people’s blood will be on your hands and the book of Revelation says cowards go to hell, so warning people of this danger and not being a coward about it and not making excuses to not warn people it, is the Christian way. No offense, but if you do not understand that it’s your job to warn people of this, then you do not understand Christianity. You said, “I don’t believe that this changes anything that we are told to do in our lives by God.” You are mistaken. Again, I say that not to insult you, I’m sincerely trying to help and people understand this. The Bible describes the time of the Antichrist as the most dangerous time in human history that will ever occur. People’s souls are being tested now and depending on what people do and what they are tempted by, they will be in hell forever. It’s un-Christlike to not warn people of something during "the most dangerous time in history" that will impact where people end up for eternity (and possibly being tortured in hell for eternity). That’s very unloving to not care about your fellow man, and you yourself may be judged for being selfish and apathetic towards other people’s wellbeing. (Again, no offense, I’m just getting my point across).
If you noticed a small child wandering towards the edge of a cliff and about to fall off, you wouldn't warn the child or their parents that the child was doing something unsafe? You wouldn't run over to the child and pick them up and take them away from the edge? Or would you say, "Why is it important to care about this child and this cliff? I’m confused why this is important for Christians to know. I don’t believe that this changes anything that we are told to do in our lives by God." Would that be your excuse to do nothing? The Antichrist leading people's souls to eternal damnation is exponentially more catastrophic and seriousness than any other danger you could warn someone of, so warn them.
Imagine if some other country invaded your country and started killing people, and you just sat around and did nothing to help your own people. You didn’t fight; you didn’t warn people. Your country would call you a coward and hate you for it, maybe even kill you for idly sitting down and doing nothing while everyone else was fighting for their lives.
Imagine an alien species invading Earth, and you had prior knowledge to warn people of the incoming invasion, but you did nothing to warn humanity and help people prepare. What kind of person would that make you? Is that the kind of person God wants in his kingdom?
God is judging people based on how they behave. The Book of Revelation and many other parts of the Bible explain that God will judge people according to what they have done (Revelation 20:12-15 and Romans 2:6). You and everyone in the world is about to demonstrate who you are and if you truly follow Jesus, or if you are just one of those people who say to yourself, “I go to church, I said I accept Jesus, so I’m going to heaven.” Some people mindlessly say “Once saved always saved,” but these are all lies and falsehoods that people buy into that make them lukewarm (the Bible says lukewarm people are spat out of his mouth). You need to obey God like in John 3:36, which says that if you do not obey God, then you will not be in Jesus’ kingdom and you will be damned. And if you want to obey God, that means understanding what I’m saying and righteously acting on this information. God would not send me to preach this if it made no difference.
The angels in heaven were judged for how they fought against Satan in heaven, now humans are being judged by similar circumstances. This is a part of God’s judgmental process. God judged their courage and obedience and willingness to stand up against evil, now it’s your turn.
Also, for nonbelievers, the prophecy of the Antichrist occurring right now also proves Christianity is true. This is the best empirical evidence of the existence of Christianity. So, to help people convert to Christianity and give some people the convincing proof they have asked for, give them this. I have seen people realize Christianity is true because of this. This has that power. Share this information with people for this reason as well.
Counterfeit Biblical Prophecies Do Not Happen: There is No Way My Testimony About Who the Antichrist Is Could Be Wrong.
Prophecies do not happen unless they are from God, otherwise, no one could trust any prophesy from the Bible, and this defeat the entire function of a prophecy and all prophecies would be useless. If anyone’s reaction to a fulfilled prophecy is, “Well, maybe that’s the not the “real” prophecy. Maybe that’s just the devil trying to deceive us and create a situation that depicts exactly what is in prophesied in the Bible to trick us! Or maybe it’s a group of people who are conspiring together to create a prophecy from the Bible! Or maybe it is some sort of freak accident that depicts exactly what is prophesied in the Bible!”
If people come to these delusional ways of doubting a prophecy and making excuses that the prophecy could somehow be illegitimate, then it is irrational and hypocritical to believe anything in the Bible. The Christian who argues like this should be consistent with their standard of evidence and demonstrate they do not have a confirmation bias and apply that standard to everything else in the Bible. They should then say that perhaps all the prophecies that Jesus fulfilled were deceptions of the devil to make you think that Jesus was the real Messiah and that he was actually a false prophet. It only follows that everything could just be a deception of the devil and nothing can be believed in.
A rational person understands that if God were to allow prophecies to falsely occur for any reason, that would question the legitimacy of all prophecies and no one could tell the difference between an act from God and an act of deception from the devil or any other counterfeit reason, so if any prophecy is ever fulfilled, it must be from God and it must be the prophecy being fulfilled from the Bible.
Therefore, my testimony is Biblical; it would never happen otherwise.
The fact that there is a man with a global cult, who is making his followers put antichrist marks on their bodies means that this person is the Antichrist. There has never been another person who had done this and there never will. On top of that, there are multiple documented people who were told by God that this man is the Antichrist, the false prophet, prophesied in the Bible. Then, there’s an individual named Michael who was told by God that he is the messenger of God of the end time and multiple other people were told by God that he is the prophet of God of the end time. These are prophecies that are foretold to happen at the end time in the Bible.
Anyone, especially any Christian, who makes an argument that there is a conspiracy where either the devil or a group of people who have replicated a prophecy from the Bible, is inherently wrong. As I just explained, that cannot happen, God would not allow it, or else no one could ever trust God without thinking that it could somehow be a hoax and then every historic action of God could be disbelieved and disregarded as a hoax. There are no forgeries.
It is outright irrational to believe that I could have hallucinated this experience, I clearly have video-interviewed witnesses to explain they were told the same thing by God. People who make that argument and try to argue that this is due to a mental health issue are outright irrational and being idiotic and do not have basic reasoning skills and should not be taken seriously.
People’s salvation depend on understanding this information.
Why does God allow Satan and the Antichrist to interact with humanity?
I have met people who believe that the Antichrist will be someone who has been working in the shadows to cause the wars in the world, who causes all sorts of chaos to happen from behind the scenes, therefore they have trouble understanding and believing in who the Antichrist truly is.
Contrary to what some people believe, the Antichrist is not someone who has a hand in most of the world’s evil practices. I met someone who had trouble understanding how Jared Leto could be the Antichrist because they said that Jared Leto is an actor and a musician and is not in a place of political power to create the wars, or the political corruption that is happening, and they had a list of other bad things and people in the world that were not directly involved with Jared Leto.
There is no prophecy in the Bible that says that the Antichrist will act as this master puppeteer from behind the scenes causing all of this mayhem secretly - that is not the role of the Antichrist, it never was.
I explained to this person:
People are like food and God is like a freezer. When food is left out of the refrigerator, the food goes bad and rots and decays, but when the food is in the freezer, then it stays fresh and good. People who are with God stay good, but when people stay outside of God and do not follow Him, their souls decay and rot and they make bad selfish sinful decisions that rots their souls and they become demonic. All of these horrible things that are happening in this world that people are doing are the same things people would be doing if the devil did not exist and if these people were not following God like they are now. The Antichrist is not making these wars and horrible situations happen; this horrible things in the world would happen if he were not here. The Antichrist is like a flag bearer who represents sinful self-indulgence and the refusal to repent, take accountability, grow up, and become a better person by following God. People who want to stay sinful will be attracted to the Antichrist. People who are sinful and have some good left in them will be so disgusted with the Antichirst when he rises in power that they will accept Jesus. People who never were truly with God will fall away from Him. The presence of the Antichrist acts as a mechanism to sift the wheat from the chaff, the goats from the sheep, and the weeds from the crop. The Antichrist does not need to be the cause of the war between Russian and Ukraine, or the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, or the cause of the human sex trafficking crisis, or anything else you can think of. He is someone who is seen as the salvation for people who want to sin.
Introducing Satan into this world is God’s way of showing people what evil is and what kind of evil being people become over time when they rebel against God; this encourages people to abandon sin and accept God in ways that they may otherwise not have done.
But evil people will identify with Satan and accept Satan as their leader. This is why God is introducing the Antichrist, the incarnation of Satan, to humanity to see who is attracted and repelled by Satan’s soul. The only soul who could gureentee to be evil in the way that is needed is Satan. That is why the Antichirst is the incarnation of Satan.
Introducing Satan is like introducing a magnet that repels people away from sin and towards God and also attracts people who are evil, demonstrating how undeserving of mercy and how deserving of hell these people are. God placed Michael, myself, on this earth to counterbalance this spiritual equation and have someone who inherently will always follow God, who is the flag bearer for Jesus during the end time.
You must obey God to be in his kingdom.
“Believe” in John 3:16 always originally meant “obey.” The theory of “once saved always saved” is wrong. Here is the proof:
There are people who mindlessly quote John 3:16 or say “once saved always saved” and argue that all anyone has to do is simply “believe” in Jesus and that you will have eternal life, yet all too often, they do not clearly define what they mean by “believe.” If they “believe” in Jesus, wouldn’t that mean that they believe Him when He said, “If anyone serves me, he must follow Me; and where I am, there will my servant be also. If anyone serves Me, the Father will honor him,” John 12:26?
Or do they not actually believe in Jesus? How can they “believe in Him” and “believe Him” and not believe in what He says?
Do they believe Jesus when He says, “Whoever does not bear his own cross and come after Me cannot be My disciple” (Luke 14:27)?
Do they believe Jesus when Me says, “Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven. Many will say to Me in that day, ‘Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name?’ And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!’ (Matthew 7:21-23)
For some odd reason these people say that you have to believe in Jesus, but they do not seem to believe Jesus when he says these things, or when the Bible says in John 3:36 that people must “obey” Jesus or experience the Wrath of God that will remain on them, John 3:36:
“Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life; whoever does not obey the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God remains on him."
This is the original meaning of the passage. If you translate the original Greek, this is what it translates into; if you copy and paste the original Greek into google translate, it will recite this meaning.
The original Greek from Codex Vaticanus (4th century):
ὁ πιστεύων εἰς τὸν υἱὸν ἔχει ζωὴν αἰώνιον· ὁ δὲ ἀπειθῶν τῷ υἱῷ, οὐκ ὄψεται ζωήν, ἀλλ’ ἡ ὀργὴ τοῦ Θεοῦ μένει ἐπ’ αὐτόν.
The results of inserting Codex Vaticanus into Google Translate:
It’s clear the Bible teaches that you have to obey Jesus to be with Him or else you receive the wrath of God, so inherently simply “believing in Jesus” is not enough.
Also, these people who say “John 3:16 says that all we have to do is believe in Jesus and we’re saved” are not aware of John 3:14-15, the sentence directly before John 3:16. People like this like pushing the “all you have to do is vaguely believe in Jesus in the most watered down way possible and you will be saved; once saved always saved!” They do not know the meaning of the passage of John 3:16.
This is the full context, John 3:14-16:
“Just as Moses lifted up the snake in the wilderness, so the Son of Man must be lifted up, that everyone who believes may have eternal life in him. For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.”
Notice how John 3:14-15 references that "believing” in Jesus is how the people who followed Moses had to "believe” in Moses in order to not be killed by God. People stopped obeying Moses because they lacked faith in him after wondering through the desert for a long time and became restless and rebelled against him after they had already seen the miracles that proved he was the prophet, like the plagues and the parting sea. They already believed in him before when he parted the Red Sea, but lost their faith in him over time. They stopped “obeying” him because they stopped “believing” in him and since this is what the passage is referencing, God is saying that if you stop believing or do not believe in Jesus like the Hebrews did with Moses, you will killed.
In order to properly obey God you must first believe in him, and if you lose your faith in him, then you stop following and obeying him, that’s why the Hebrews were killed for those who did not look at the bronze serpent in Numbers 21:4-9.
“Believe” does mean “obey,” that’s why John 3:36 says if people do not obey, they will perish and experience the wrath of God like how the Hebrews who did not obey and believe in Moses.
The English language has watered down the meaning of "believe" to mean simply "accepting that something exists," which is not what "belief" meant in the context of the Bible. "Believing" in someone was an active thing - it was how you followed and obeyed someone. Belief and obey meant the same thing in the context of the Bible so that's why certain translations translate ἀπειθέω into the words "disobey" and "not believe" interchangeably. That’s why some translations will translate the word into “not believe.”
That’s why throughout the ages, this passage was translated into “disobey,” like how in the Huntington 17 manuscript, Coptic New Testament manuscript from 1174 A.D., translates this passage as “disobedient”:
If manuscripts from the year 1174 A.D. were translating this passage into the word “disobedient” and the ancient Greek translates ἀπειθῶν as “disobey,” then it’s clear that throughout the ages, Christians understood that John 3:36 always meant “disobey” not simply a water-downed version of “disbelieve.” This is why most Bibles translate ἀπειθῶν as a variation of disobey: “obeyeth not,” “disobedient,” “not obeying,” “doesn’t obey,” “disobeys.”
Here is a quote from https://www.lavistachurchofchrist.org/cms/why-is-apeitheo-in-john-336-translated-not-obey-in-some-versions-and-not-believe-in-others/:
"The Greek word apeitheo is a compound word. The prefix a means "not" and the verb peitho means "to obey" when used in the active sense or "to be persuaded" when used in the passive sense. In John 3:36 the verb is in the active present tense, so "disobey" would be the correct literal translation."
Jesus' contrast of believe (pisteuo) against disobey (apeitheo) demonstrates that God sees belief and obedience to be two sides of the same coin. So many denominational teachers have claimed that faith and works are separate issues and that we are saved by faith alone that people are often surprised to find that God sees things differently. James said, "You see then that a man is justified by works, and not by faith only" (James 2:24). Belief cannot be separated from obedience. A person who is obeying is demonstrating his belief. A person who believes won't sit there and do nothing.
The writer of Hebrews makes the same parallel. Hebrews 3:18-19 shows that disobedience and disbelief are two views of the same problem."
This is reiterated in 1 John 2:5-6, “But if anyone obeys His word, God's love is truly made complete in Him. This is how we know we are in Him: Whoever claims to live in Him must walk as Jesus did.”
Another nail in the coffin is 1 John 2:3-6:
“We know that we have come to know Him (Jesus) if we keep His commands. Whoever says, “I know Him,” but does not do what He commands is a liar, and the truth is not in that person. But if anyone obeys his word, love for God is truly made complete in them. This is how we know we are in Him: Whoever claims to live in Him must live as Jesus did.”
Therefore me saying that faith is ultimately about obedience is correct. Faith is meant to be what makes you trust Jesus enough to ultimately obey Him and follow Him. How could Jesus be your king if you do not obey your king? What good is belief in Jesus if it is not followed by obedience?
Satan and the fallen angels “believe” Jesus is the son of God, but they will be condemned to hell, and so will be the devil worshippers alive today who believe Jesus is God, but do not obey Him. If all you have to do is “believe” then all of these disobedient people will be with Jesus in his kingdom. If the followers of Jesus did not have to obey Jesus but only “believe,” how are they ultimately any different than those devil worshippers who believe? Why aren’t those who worship Satan allowed in Jesus’ kingdom either?
For some odd reason these people say that you have to believe in Jesus, but they do not seem to believe Jesus when he discusses these things about obedience, or when he says, “Anyone who loves me will obey my teaching. My Father will love them, and we will come to them and make our home with them. Anyone who does not love me will not obey my teaching,” (John 14:23) Or when Jesus says, “You are my friends if you do what I command you.” (John 15:14)
It’s so odd they won’t believe Jesus when he tells people to obey Him, but they somehow claim to believe in Him and believe that He is their savior. They have so little respect for their savior that they are unwilling to obey Him - this is the gratitude they show to Jesus, their savior, their God, the one who died on the cross? How can they call themselves followers of Jesus when they do not want to follow and obey Him? They will obey some authority in their country or personal life, like a boss at work, someone they admire, or the government or laws of their country, but then they will not obey the God they claim to worship - that is so very perverse and hypocritical. Those who choose to not obey Jesus are building their houses on sand: “Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock … But everyone who hears these words of mine and does not put them into practice is like a foolish man who built his house on sand. The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell with a great crash.” (Matthew 7:24)
One of the main points of God sending prophets and rulers to the Jewish people in the Torah was to teach them how to be obedient to God and train and teach humanity how to behave and obey Him in His Kingdom. How can God create a kingdom without sin if people are not obeying Him? Saying that people do not have to obey Jesus to enter His kingdom make no sense. Saying that all God went through all this trouble of sending prophet after prophet and telling the Jews to wage wars against other kingdoms, and sending plagues to humanity, and threatening them with eternal damnation in hell - to say that went though all that trouble was for humanity to simply “believe Jesus exists” is absurd and disregards the reason why God did what He did in the Torah. And why would God not care about people obeying him and following his commands after killing people for not obeying Him?
Did God suddenly stop caring about people obeying Him? The Torah does not make sense if you think you are not required to obey Him. And it only makes a person sound like they do not respect God and want the most water-downed version of God so they can disobey him and do whatever they want while still not having any consequences for that. It’s of poor character and disrespectful to God to want to believe that you do not have to obey God and make excuses that God does not require you to. This is why the ancient Coptic churches and the ancient Eastern Orthodox churches and the ancient Roman Catholic Church have always understood that John 3:16 means obey, because that was the original meaning; yet, there are overconfident uneducated people who misinterpret scripture, yet fancy themselves as experts and act like everyone who read a Bible before them had no idea what John 3:16 meant, and it wasn’t until they discovered the passage that the passage was finally understood. Ironically, they think of themselves as experts on scripture, but fail to become experts. They shout “Sola Scriptura!” while misinterpreting scripture. They shout that “scripture is the authority!” while not being authorities on scripture themselves. They assume they understand God all the while disobeying Him.
“Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools, And changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man.” (Romans 1:22-32)
It sounds like these people who do not want to believe they have to obey God want to worship a god in their own image to suit their own disobedient and corrupted interests. You worship a false god by worshipping a false version of God.
How to reach salvation:
Faith, Works, Obedience and Grace
It is through grace that anyone enters God’s kingdom since no one deserves to be with God and there is no work that you can do that makes you deserving to be there, but God will not extend that grace to you if you do not obey Him. He will not extend that grace to you if you don’t do what you’re supposed to do. He will not extend that grace to you if you do not commit to improving as a person for as long as you live. He will not extend that grace to you if you do not commit to doing good works for as long as you live. He will not extend that grace to you if you do not obey God. If you do not obey the Father and the Son, they will not extend their grace to you. He will not extend this grace to you if you do not have faith in Him and what he has said, like when he says to obey Him and do good works. If you do not have faith in him that you must do that, then you do not have faith in Him and his word. So do not expect to receive his grace if you do not have faith in God and what he commands.
This is the truth and also the only explanation that coincides with the Bible when it says that people must obey Jesus (John 3:36) and how they will judged for their works (Matthew 25:31-46 “…then they will go away to eternal punishment, but the righteous to eternal life”; Revelation 20:13; “each person was judged according to what they had done”) and how the Bible explains how only through grace alone (Ephesians 2:8-9“For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— not by works, so that no one can boast.”)
There is no other way to reconcile scripture besides my explanation. Any other explanation you have will end of having you contradicting yourself and what is in the Bible.
Speaking of Ephesians 2:8-9, faith is the surrendering to God - surrendering your intellect, your allegiance, your desires, and your will to God’s will. Faith is not just making a verbal agreement saying, “Yes, God, I agree that you are God and that Jesus died on the cross for my sins - got it, thanks.”
It is through this kind of faith where you will walk blindfolded towards God’s voice that you will. receive His grace and find His kingdom.
“Faith without works is dead,” James 2:26.
Jesus also said, “But the one who perseveres to the end will be saved,” (Matthew 24:13). People have to endure obeying Jesus and following Him will be with Him. This makes perfect sense, considering that people have to accept following and obeying Jesus for eternity in His kingdom, so if you do not start doing obeying and following Him now, you won’t obey and follow Him later in His kingdom.
At this particular time, God has a special way of judging whether people actually have real faith in Him and if they really obey Him. God is choosing who he will extend his grace to, so he is sending a messenger at this time to test whether people will actually demonstrate their faith and obedience to God at this time.
Following God also includes following a messenger when he sends a messenger, like when was sent, and those who did not follow Moses and disobeyed him were killed. Not following the designated leader is not following God. Those who did not follow Moses were killed like in the story of the bronze serpent (Numbers 21:4-9).
God has now sent Michael, prophesied to appear in Daniel 12.1. This is why it says that at this time some people will be delivered and experience everlasting life and some will be others to shame and everlasting contempt.
This is why Jesus gave the Parable of the 10 Virgins. The followers of God who put oil in their lamps will have the light to see in the darkness and find Jesus and be with Him in His kingdom, but those who do not put the oil in their lamps will be lost in the darkness. I, Michael, am the oil. Receive me and I will light your way through the darkness, follow me and I will show you were the narrow path is and you will be with Jesus.
For those of you who say, “You cannot be Michael from Daniel 12:1, you are not the Archangel.”
How do you know that I am not?
If you know how Michael will appear, then how will he appear?
Do you think it’s a person with wings floating in the sky? Or could it be in a form of a person born on Earth like Jesus and how the prophets before Him appeared?
How will it happen then? You do not know, the scripture does not say. How can you say I am not Michael when you do not know how Michael will appear?
Are you going to make the argument that I cannot be Archangel Michael because I am in the form of a human man? That’s the same argument Orthodox Jews and Muslims make when they scoff at the idea the God could incarnate as a human in as Jesus Christ did. Are you saying that you are like them?
Are you going to make the argument that God can only make Himself incarnate into a human, but that he does not have the power to make an angel incarnate as a human?
Are you putting limitations on God?
Are you saying God is to weak to make Michael a human?
Where in the Bible does it say that God cannot make an angel incarnate as a human?
Tell me the verse please — oh, but there is no verse, just the logical fallacy of personal incredulity.
If Jesus Christ is greater than Archangel Michael, why would Archangel Michael appear appear in a greater way and a more flattering way than Jesus? Why would Michael appear floating in the sky with wings and a golden plate of armor, glowing magnificently, if God Himself appeared as a man whose feet touched the ground?
If Jesus Christ lived a perfect life, why would I live a more perfect life and appear in a more magnificent way?
Jesus Christ was the perfect example of what we should become because he was sinless, but Jesus Christ in not an example of how to repent and how to follow Jesus and overcome sin, because he did not sin - he had nothing to repent for. So, God brought Michael, and one of my functions is to lead you all in overcoming sin so you can be with Jesus.
Like in genetic cloning, God took the spirit, the spiritual DNA, of Michael and inserted that spirit into a human. God did the same with Satan, this is why the Antichrist is a spiritual clone of Satan. We have the same nature as our angelic counterpart.
I am Michael from Daniel 12:1.
Those who are rejecting me are disobeying God. Those who accept God accept me, as with Moses and the bronze serpent, and people will be judged accordingly.
The apocalypse is “the revealing” and you all are about to reveal who you really are.
To the Roman Catholics who are waiting for the Catholic church to acknowledge that I am Michael from Daniel 12:1 (and everyone else from their respective denominations who are waiting for their church leaders to tell them if I am Michael from Daniel 12:1 or not):
There’s nothing in the Bible that states that a future church will exist that will be infallible and will know the signs of who Michael and the Antichrist is before everyone else. That’s not in scripture and it’s not biblical and it’s heretical to believe that.
Did the Jewish leaders in Jesus’ time know who Jesus was? No.
The Sadducees and most of the Pharisees did not tell the Jewish people that Jesus was the Messiah. It was fishermen and a tax collector who told people that Jesus was the Messiah.
Who acknowledge Moses? Was it the Pharaoh or was it slaves? Slaves.
Who acknowledged David was the prophet of God? Was it the king or was it the people? The people.
It is a great possibility that the most powerful people in the Catholic Church and all the denominations will not side with me and tell you that I am Michael from Daniel 12:1, just how the Sadducees and Pharisees did not with Jesus, and how the Pharaoh did not with Moses, and how King Saul did not with David.
The biblical pattern is that God sends a person to humbly take the position of “prophet” while the ruling powers that be mock and persecute him. That’s how it works. If you want to take the side of power hungry Pharisees, that’s your choice. I don’t advise it.
And take note of this, if you think the Catholic Church is infallible and will always be the righteous authority of all matters always and you believe God supernaturally made it that way, why didn’t He make the Pharisees infallible and always right and recognize Jesus? Why didn’t God do the same with Moses and the Pharaoh or any other example of the Bible. Why doesn’t God just make everybody believe in the same thing for that matter and make us not have any disagreements? It’s because there is no magical spell making the church always see the truth. Everybody is just a person who is riddled with imperfections and people in powerful positions are usually in those positions because they put power over God and everything else which blinds them from the truth, like the Pharisees, and all the churches are no different. This is why God designates a prophet to appear at certain times because other people can’t have the virtue and humility to handle the position. It’s almost always an outcast who has this position.
I recommend watching this video for more information about the nature of myself and the Antichrist to understand why we are here and why God made this situation the way He did.
A response to people saying God is evil
A quote from someone, “If you walk away from having read teh Bible thinking god is the good guy, you have reading comprehension skill problems.“
My response: “Are you upset because God judged savage murderous lunatics in the Bible to create a better timeline for everyone? Is that evil to you?”
There were people and societies throughout history who were so terrible, that if they continued to exist, they would have continued to do things to ruin the world for everyone, and God eliminated them like an infected limb that needed to be amputed to not kill the rest of the person. They would have had offspring who would have continued to spred their unrepentant sinful behavior to the rest of the world and would have dominated the world in their own evil culture, and then the world would not have a chance to understand and listen to God to find salvation. It takes a self-absorbed ungrateful person to live in the world we live in today and say they wish they could have lived in the disgusting and treacherous societies of Sodom and Gomorrah and the time of Noah.God enabled us to live in this world where we have a chance to be good by warding off evil people who would have altered the timeline into a much worse irredeemable direction, who would have taught all their offspring to be evil, where there would be no good role models for any child to look up to.
Humans have the ability and opportunity to even see the righteous path because they are not consumed in a world that is entirely evil. God removed key people and civilizations that were threatening humanity’s salvation.
Humans are able to see any light because God poked holes in the darkness.
God is Love
Did atoms and molecules all randomly collide with one another, creating humans, sentient life forms who are capable of complex things like love and affection? It takes more faith to believe that all that we see and feel came from random thoughtless nothingness than it does to believe it came from something more.
Is love a chemical reaction, a fluke of nature? Or is love an ancient life form that existed before this universe was created, the same life form that many call God?
Arguably, love is the most important thing in life, and if God is this ancient life form called Love, where all the true love we experience in life is sourced from, then God, along with love, must be the most important thing that exists.
Why love the fruit but hate or dismiss the tree the fruit falls from?
Why does God allow evil to occur?
Two main reasons why God allows evil to occur is to God allows evil so people can learn why evil is evil and why evil should not be done through lived experience.
If God didn't allow beings with free will to do the evil things they want, or if he punished them before they actually did what they were about to do (like in the novel and film “Minority Report”, a story about a society where people are sent to jail and charged with being a criminal before they commit a crime) many sorts of problems would occur.
Here is an example:
Let’s say you had telepathy and could read someone’s mind and see their evil thoughts and know they are evil and unrepentant and unapologetically evil, where you know they are evil before they even commit an evil act, where you are aware of the evil they are scheming to do in the future, and to protect people from any incoming evil, you send them to prison or kill them for being evil, but the rest of the world, who do not have your mind reading capabilities, simply observed you imprisoning or executing a person without seeing any proof that they are evil because you imprisoned or killed the evil one before they showed anyone proof of their evil, so it may appear that you did something terrible to an innocent person and you may look like the villain and not the hero. In order to prove someone is evil to the rest of the world, it appears God allows evil to be evil to demonstrate they are evil to the cosmos, so the angels and the people of the cosmos can witness the evil and understand why this individual is rightfully being sent to Hell.
God may be able to detect who is evil and who is good in ways no one else is capable of doing, and because of this, God knows who is becoming evil and what an evil person is scheming. God could intervene in a few ways:
1) God could punish someone or send them to Hell before they commit an evil action,
2) God could announce to all the beings in the heavens and in the cosmos who is evil before they have committed a crime or demonstrated their evil ways,
3) God could speak to the suspected individual and console them on the evil that is building inside of them before they commit an evil action (but it is likely such an evil individual would claim that God is lying and that there is no evil inside of them, as evil people often do; they try to hide their evil, and if God can already anticipate that the individual would lie about their evil if confronted with it, then there would be no point in consoling an sneaky unrepentant and unapologetic evil individual, therefore, this option is likely not going to be used by God.
From the perspective of the onlookers and all the other angels and people of the heavens and of the world, it may appear that the individual has done nothing wrong, who is either being sent to Hell, punished, or accused of being evil by God. If God were to handle the situation differently, it may appear to a bystander that God is harassing and falsely accusing an innocent person. Yet, if God allows people to demonstrate their evil, God can then show the cosmos, and all the spirits, all the angels, and all of his creations the proof that the evil individual is evil.
God is allowing people to show the world who they are by allowing them to do what they want. By allowing beings to witness why God is punishing someone or why God would send someone to Hell people then can understand the justification why God is handling the situation and the individual is justified (instead of the alternative of God reading their minds and punishing people before they commit an act of evil). People may question God or lose faith in God if they witness sending people to Hell before they ever noticed someone exhibiting any evil tendencies. People could begin to wonder if the person sent to Hell was evil at all and if God made the right choice. As a result, people could live in fear and paranoia wondering if they could be sent to Hell falsely before they did anything wrong. Psychologically, this could be devastating for God’s creations if He terminated beings without demonstrating that they are evil and willing to repent.
And by allowing beings to "mess up" and do wrong things, the world gets to see the chaos unfold and understand why "wrong things" are wrong things. If beings were not allowed to do wrong things or were somehow stopped by God prior to doing something wrong, then created beings would likely never fully understand why something is wrong if they don't get to witness the consequences of their actions. Would people be able to learn what is right if they were not given the time to do wrong? Doing what is wrong allows humans to witness the consequences of doing wrong things and why wrong is wrong and why right is right through lived experience. God temporarily allowing his created beings to experience the chaos of doing wrong things may be the best teaching method to teach his created beings (in this case humans) to learn what is right. The success rate for people converting to goodness may be highest if God orients the world like this, where he rarely shows himself or intervenes or tells people what to do and allows people to figure out good and evil and right and wrong on their own. People also can have problems with taking instruction from others, including God, and can desire to do the opposite of what they are told, where their decision are the product of “reverse psychology”, where if God told people what to do and how to be good, people would decide to do the opposite out of spite and to demonstrate their free will. So, allowing people to do whatever they want and experience the pain of what life is like when people sin and how life does not improve when people do wickedness, people can learn through experience why evil is evil and why it should not be done.
God allows evil to occur to demonstrate why those who are unrepentantly evil need to go to Hell, and to prove that an evil individual is evil. God also allows evil to teach people why not to do evil by experiencing the consequences of evil and why life is better when evil does not exist and why life is better when we do not sin.
How is it ethical and logical that God sends people to Hell for eternity?
Sin destroys society.
Someone who is unrepentant and who will never stop sinning is someone who has mercilessly decided to always destroy society and sabotage everyone else’s ability to live in a world of true peace.
Because these people are mercilessly destroying the lives of everyone around them, God has no mercy for them and they go to hell for eternity just how these people were going to destroying everyone’s lives for eternity.
Why is believing that truth is “relative” harmful? And how are Satan and manipulative people capable of taking advantage of us?
A society of holiness and justice and sanity is achieved by being rational and truthful and grounded in reality. Being led astray from truth and rationality and being grounded in reality leads people away from God and towards darkness and ruin, where people are ultimately ruled by wickedness.
This is what is predicted in The Bible: during a time of great desperation in humanity, an individual (Satan) will manipulate others who have become lost in life, for the lost people of the world will be able to be easily manipulated, and he will use them to do his bidding, this is the big threat that people often do not understand, that this is the cycle of life when people are irrational and lost; without God people become lost, and when a manipulative person comes along and sees so many gullible and easily impressionable people, they can come along and play with people’s minds and lead them into a cult or sorts. Those people who are lost and who have lived lives that have destroyed their minds will be taken advantage of, for they have lived a life of ignoring the truth and indulging and their mental defenses are too damaged to detect that they are being taken advantage of.
How people perceive reality alters how they form their ethics and decisions they make in life. If people are irrational, irrational decisions will be made and irrational codes of ethics will be made. And irrational ethics is the opposite of what is ethical, which is “unethical”. A false sense of reality leads to an unethical state of existence.
I have heard people say “truth is relative”, is it though? How does this person know “truth is relative”? That’s a self-defeating statement. That’s an absolute statement claiming that there are no absolutes. If it is objectively true that truth is relative, then truth is objective, and not relative, or, how can that statement be true, if truth is relative – from this mere example, we can see how believing that truth is relative is irrational, and how irrationality and “relativism” breeds confusion.
Irrationality and the belief that truth is relative leads to a chaotic fracturing of society. This is what breeds the questionable culture that is arising in society, where truth can be whatever anyone wants it to be, with the idea that there are no consequences to being irrational and believing that the truth is not true, where 1 + 1 = whatever number a person wants it to mean as long as it makes them feel good, where saying the answer is 2 can be considered oppressive or “outdated” or “just a construct”, and the idea that anything can be anything with the ignorance that believing such will have no consequences on society and wont deteriorate society – but someone who believes truth is relative could then say that a “chaotic” or “deteriorated society” is subjective and that society never had to be anything to begin with – which is essentially an argument for nihilism and indifference disguised as “social freedom”. Living without truth ultimately leads to nihilism and the eradication of holiness and truth and reason. A society of holiness and justice and sanity is achieved by being rational and truthful and grounded in reality. A society of holiness and justice and sanity is achieved by being rational and truthful and grounded in reality. Being led astray from truth and rationality and being grounded in reality leads people away from God and towards darkness and ruin, where people are ultimately ruled by wickedness.
“I am the vine; you are the branches. If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing.” – John 15:5
God has already stated this. God will only tolerate holiness and will no longer give life to those who indulge in what is unholy and irrational. People are only connected to God if they are connected to the truth and the truth is how reality works, and God, who created reality, is the truth of the truth and the ultimate truth of reality. For people who distort reality, distort their perception of God, and distort everything else they see in life, including right and wrong and what is good and bad.
Frank Turek makes a good explanation of this topic.
The Question:
"Why does sin look so good?"
"Why is sin so tempting?"
"I am struggling with sin. How do I stay focused on God and stay focused on doing the right thing and no longer sin?”
The Answer:
It is best to think about what person we become when we sin.
Instead of focusing on how delightful or pleasurable or tempting a particular sin is, think about the person you become when you indulge in that sin, and think about how you deteriorate mentally and soulfully when you sin.
If we find ourselves feeling tempted to sin, it is best to think about what we turn into and the mess we create for ourselves and for others when we sin. We contaminate our own minds when we sin and we spread chaos and lawlessness and apathy into the world when we sin.
Think about sin like this: being “holy” is being clean and living in a clean frame of mind, and our frame of mind is our mental living space, our home. When we sin, it is like creating a dog turd in our home and in our “mental living space”; it is creating filth that we then have to live with inside of ourselves. And then we might step in that filth later or we have to pretend that filth is not there inside of us and we have to navigate ourselves around the filth that we create in our own soul. I know that is a bit of a gross and graphic analogy, but sin should be seen as gross so we don’t partake in sin. It is better to not sin so we don’t have to live inside a decrepit environment in ourselves.
Be wary of sinning, and be weary of thinking that you are such a righteous person, that you could do no wrong; as it is said in Ezekiel:
“If I tell a righteous person that they will surely live, but then they trust in their righteousness and do evil, none of the righteous things that person has done will be remembered; they will die for the evil they have done.” - Ezekiel 33:13
The more we are aware of what is good and what is evil, the more evil doing evil is; as it is said in The Second Epistle of Peter:
“It would have been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness than to have known it and turned away from the holy commandment passed on to them.” - 2 Peter 2:21
We disgrace ourselves when we sin and when we continue to sin; as it is said in Proverbs:
“As a dog returns to his vomit, so a fool repeats his folly.” -Proverbs 26:11
This motif is found in The Book of Mark, the concept of “What we do, we inflict upon ourselves”:
“What comes out of a person is what defiles him. For from out of the heart of man, come evil thoughts, sexual immorality, theft, murder, adultery, coveting, wickedness, deceit, sensuality, envy, slander, pride, foolishness. All these evil things come from within, and they defile a person.” - Mark 7:20-23
Sin is perishable. Sin is a thought or emotion or an action that spoils us and rots the world around us like rotting flesh. Sin is a temporary indulgence that leads to temporary perceived “success”, whereas God is timeless and the success that is harvested from living in God’s ways is timeless and eternal. Sin is built on a faulty foundation that collapses. God and God’s ways are built upon a sturdy foundation that lasts forever. If there is a refuge for us to take shelter in, let us find refuge in the timeless protection of God and not the doomed structure of sin; as Eugene Rose stated:
“Everything in this life passes away - only God remains, only He is worth struggling toward. We have a choice: to follow the way of this world, of the society that surrounds us, and hereby find ourselves outside of God; or choose the way of life, to choose God Who calls us and for Whom our heart is searching.” - Eugene Rose
God is the only one who truly lives and lives forever. God is what allows us to be alive. By following God, we live. God gives life to those who follow him. God does not sin. Sin is not where God is. By following sin, we are where God isn’t and where life is not present. Going towards sin is going towards death.
Sin is the abandonment of virtue and the abandonment of being responsible. The world becomes less bearable as more corrupt the less virtuous and less responsible we are. When people sin, people create a worse world for everyone else and themselves. Being holy is being responsible and understanding that we must always be responsible in knowing how every action has consequences and can impact everyone else we share life with and making the most responsible decisions creates the best world for all of us; as it is said in The First Epistle of John:
“Everyone who makes a practice of sinning also practices lawlessness; sin is lawlessness.” - 1 John 3:4
The structure of society is only sustainable when people are holy, fair, just, loving, thoughtful, responsible and are free from the slavery of sin. Being addicted to sin and lawlessness and pleasure enslaves oneself and everyone else who is a victim of the consequences of the sinner. Society fractures and falls apart when people sin. People who sin do not care about the “greater good”. They may make up excuses to justify how their debauchery and how their evil does not destroy society or harm anyone. They may try to convince themselves and others that they have found an alternative way to live that is just as good or better than how God and God’s angel’s live – they are wrong. Sinners are slaves to their sin, which is their slave master. They will do evil things and lie to themselves and others to continue worshiping sin. And sinning enslaves everyone else in the world. Since sin causes the world to no longer be at peace, those who sin are ruining peace for the rest of the world. And for those who sin, they are not free, but bound by their bad behavior. Sin becomes prison cell, preventing people to grow into someone greater; as Christ said in the Gospel of John:
“Jesus answered them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, everyone who commits sin is a slave to sin.” - John 8:34
To make sure that the world stays at peace and for society to be sustainable, where people are not living in their own filth, we must not sin, so we can be free of disaster and from living in a perpetual state of experiencing horror, injustice, suffering, incompetence, hatred, indifference, nihilism, existential dread, and struggle.
If you are suffering from sin or desiring sin, when you mind drifts to thinking about those sinful desires, think about the person you become when you indulge in that sin; think about how you become a lesser, more pathetic, version of yourself when you partake in that sin. When we sin, we eventually think in ways that to justify why our sins are good, which can lead us to more delusional thoughts like, “God loves me and accepts me for who I am,” or, “God agrees with how I live. God would not judge me.”
There are people who delude themselves with thoughts where they call Truth a lie; there are people who call lies truth. They create ideas of what God is like and imagine him to be someone who loves the sin they do. They worship a false idol in their mind, a false god who validates and praises the sin they do. These people worship their sin and then try to live in a false reality inside their mind that applauds the life they live; as it is said in Romans:
“But God shows his anger from heaven against all sinful, wicked people who suppress the truth by their wickedness.... Yes, they knew God, but they wouldn't worship him as God or even give him thanks. And they began to think up foolish ideas of what God was like. As a result, their minds became dark and confused. Claiming to be wise, they instead became utter fools … So, God abandoned them to do whatever shameful things their hearts desired. As a result, they did vile and degrading things with each other's bodies. They traded the truth about God for a lie. So, they worshiped and served the things God created instead of the Creator himself, who is worthy of eternal praise! Amen.” - Romans 1:18-32
When we are holy we allow ourselves to experience perfection, so we then can experience the best lives we can live. This is what love is in its true form. Humanity has yet to experience what love truly is. Be holy and experience love.
The world we live in will be as perfect as we are perfect. The world we live in will be as terrible as we are terrible. Our decisions make the life we live in. To live in a perfect world, we then must rise to the occasion and be perfect. How we treat each other creates the society that we live in; as it is said in the Book of Matthew:
“You therefore must be perfect, as your heavenly Father is perfect.” - Matthew 5:48
To become perfect and live in a better and perfect world, we must continue to rid ourselves of our sins, our evils, and our bad habits. We must not hide our evils from ourselves and ignore, for those evils will not disappear if ignored, but they will grow in size and in ferocity. We must banish sin from our lives and find people who are going through this same process, or who are farther along in this process, and seek them for help, and confess to these trusted people of God our sins, so they can help us overcome them, so we can find God and live with Him forever; as it is said in Proverbs:
“Whoever conceals his transgressions will not prosper, but he who confesses and forsakes them will obtain mercy.” - Proverbs 28:13
Repent, dispel and purge the sin within us. Empty our souls of the darkness. Shed the old sinful skin of our past selves and become someone new, as if you have been given a new name and a new face. And do not return to the old self. Do not wear that old face. Do not identify with that old name.
“Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come.” - 2 Corinthians 5:17
There are a lot of reasons why people turn their backs to God. Some people have this idea that God is a tyrant of sorts - a dictator, or someone who is obsessed with controlling others and is an egomaniac of sorts. And there are some people, some who I have met personally, who believe that Satan is “freedom” and is the one who is trying to free people from the dictatorship of God. But this is not true. And I will go into detail how this is untrue.
God is Good.
Some people accuse God of being evil or being an evil tyrant; what is the truth? What Is God’s character?
Understand Jesus Christ was God in human form. Jesus was God’s temperate and God’s personality in the form of human. What we have recorded in the Gospels of Jesus is God interacting with us. And how did Jesus behave? Jesus did not act like a dictator. He did not act like a cult leader. He did not act like a narcissistic controlling abuser. He acted mature and with dignity who cared about people and wanted the best for people and he was kinder to people than most people ever were to one another - that’s who Jesus was, that’s who God is.
In order to show humanity who God is in a way that humans can understand, God entered this world as a human so the world could witness Him. As I have previously explained, God allows humans to act freely so they can witness their own actions so they learn how to become better people without rebelling further into sin like a rebellious teenager if God was more involved in telling people what to do and to not sin; and because of this, life appears to be horrible to people so they wrongfully and pridefully claim that God is somehow evil, when they are simply observing how evil humanity is and what life is like without God intervening and leading humanity so humanity can know what the alternative is to not following God, so they can better appreciate God. Within the fallen world that humans have created for themselves, God sent Himself in the form of a human, Jesus Christ, so humanity can witness what kind of person He is - that is the true nature of God, and this is the type of person God is outside of the confusion of understanding who God the Father is within the complex nature of this evil world we live in that humanity has created for itself.
In the Bible there is a story of where Jesus feeds 5,000 people and afterword all the people he fed rush to Him and collectively declared Him their king and He declined because Jesus only answers to God and does not take a crown that humans give him. Jesus demonstrated that He was not corrupt or power hungry or did kind things for people so He could incentivize them to make him their king. His true nature was that he wanted to do was to help people find God and learn what love is. God’s true nature is selflessly trying to help people follow the one who is meant to be followed, which is God, without personally and selfishly wanting power for Himself. He rises to place of leadership if it is God’s will and if the situation righteously calls for his leadership.
And notice how Jesus told people that God The Father was the ultimate one people need to follow. Jesus was the type of person who would give authority to someone else if he knew they were a a great leader than Him - that’s God’s character, because that’s what Jesus’ character was. Jesus did not tell people to bow before him nor did he act like he was the most perfect and most great thing in existence, he gave that title to someone else, God The Father. Jesus demonstrated how God does not declare that he needs to be in charge because he wants to be in charge, God is the type of being who would give his power over to someone if they could do the job better, that’s what Jesus demonstrated. That is not the character of an evil person or a tyrant, but the character of someone who is the most humble and most good.
Question:
What does it mean to be responsible?
Why is being responsible important?
Why do people actively avoid responsibility?
The more we understand what it means to be responsible, the more responsible we are for our decisions and ways of life. And the more responsible we are, the more liable we are. The more liable we are for the decisions we make, the greater the consequences are.
This is an intrinsic fact that most people all know, whether they admit it or not.
And because of this logical proof that we all know by instinct, there are people who intentionally try to not know the truth of what it means to be reasonable; they try to divert their attention away from seeing the truth, because in their minds, if they can pretend to not know any better, then they can create the facade of innocence when doing wrong and committing sin. These people try not to listen to the truth when it is given to them. These people try to intentionally misunderstand the truth when they hear it; they ask misleading questions to godly people in an attempt to frame righteousness as wicked and wickedness as righteousness.
Instinctively we all know if we are found guilty, or at fault for something, or are to blame for something, we are expected to change who we are as a person and face consequences and a penalty for our actions. Either, people do not want to be asked to change their lifestyle and their way of thinking, so they try to hide the fact they did something considered wrong, and to avoid consequences.
Another tactic these people use is they will attempt to construct another system of ethics with nonsensical pseudo-logic to try to combat God’s logic, in an attempt to justify their unjustifiable behavior.
Yet, the irony is, no one can ultimately run from responsibility, for the very act of someone trying to run away from reason and responsibility by trying to hide and pretend they do not know any better, is in fact knowing better. People who are actively trying to not understand how the truth is the truth understand, somewhere inside of themselves, that the truth is the truth. So, it does not matter if someone tries to trick God into claiming that they do not know any better when they actively try to run away from understanding what it means to be responsible. If a person did not have ulterior motives for trying to deny the truth and denying what is responsible, they could have a calm thoughtful conversation and easily learn what the truth is, yet a person’s contempt to learn God’s truth is a decision that is no different than saying, “I don’t want to become a better person. I want to stay evil”; if someone were honest they would outright say that, but people often like deciding to be evil while trying to outwardly appear that they are good or at worst negligent and oblivious.
God sees through the trickery.
God sees inside the heart of everyone.
There is no lie that fools God.
God is the light.
God sees all.
Repent.
Be truthful.
Without being truthful, a person cannot repent, just how a person who ignores the answer to a question will not find the answer.
Answering:
What is witchcraft?
Is the love of money evil?
What does “Mammon” mean?
What does it mean to worship a false idol?
And how does this all relate to witchcraft and why are all of these things evil?
This question and analyzation arose from comparing two translations of the Bible in Luke 16:13.
The King James Bible translates Luke 16:13 as:
No servant can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.
The New American Standard Bible translates Luke 16:13 as:
No servant can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and wealth.
The question:
What does Luke 16:13 mean?
And what does the word “mammon” mean in the King James version?
The answer:
Mammon is a biblical term for wealth and monetary and materialistic gain.
Mammon s typically used to reference the evil that is brought into the world by desiring wealth, as if it were a god.
The term has historically been used to mean an evil demon or an evil false god.
The term “mammon” means a “false idol”.
Mammon can be translated as “wealth”, but the pith of what is being spoken to is the “wealth” of desire in people’s hearts that that eclipses their love of God, their virtuous, and their sense of reasons and responsibility for living for the greater good.
A false idol can be lust or a desire that someone worships as their god as if it is their god, like how someone worships money as their master.
A person cannot have two masters because a person cannot ultimately be loyal to God and sin simultaneously. God will ultimately require an individual to give up sin, but if a person is loyal to sin, then they will see God as the enemy for having to give up their sin.
Just how a person is forbidden by God to worship false gods. People primarily worship false gods because they want to imagine that a powerful divine being is giving them divine permission to live just how they want to live and ignore any doubt that they might potentially have to live the sinful life they are living. If a person can create a “god” in their mind that approves how they live, they can trick themselves in living a guilt free life, where they feel venerated and validated to do the wrong things they do without questioning what they are doing and by ignoring using logic and reasoning to find a better way to live.
A person cannot have God as their master and someone or something else at the same time. The two forces compete against one another. In some cases, people will even turn God, Yahweh, the god of the Bible, into a false idol by imagining that God is someone who he is not and by projecting false beliefs about who God is onto God, where someone has a false idea of who God is in order to feel as if their sins are justified. People also do this with scripture, where they twist scripture, and try to do mental gymnastics to interpret the Bible in ways in which it does not truly mean in order to justify what they want to believe in.
Yet, to go back to the question of, “Yes, the love of money evil?”; yes, to answer simply “yes”, the love of money is evil, in a similar way how obsession of power is evil. Money is a form of energy that is able to manifest an interaction. If money is used for purposes of good, then the money is used for good things. Money can be used for good, like how someone could use money to pay people to build a house for homeless people to live in. Or how someone can use money to buy a hungry homeless person food. Money, like energy is a neutral material, like wood or metal, yet, can be used for evil. Money can easily be in the category of witchcraft in the sense of how someone using dark magic tries to cast a spell to alter the laws of physics or control people or attempt to have the power of God or gain the riches of a god. Money is the means that people try to obtain power and control and wealth, like how a spellcaster or a “witch” uses psychic and demonic spellcasting to accomplishing the same thing.
People who follow God do not seek to use witchcraft as if they have the authority to manipulate people or reality in such a way, they pray and ask God for permission first to gain something and do not try to sneak around God to obtain something without God’s permission. They understand there is God’s authority above them; witchcraft is the attempt to circumvent God and his authority and messing around with life. Like how a hacker tries to hack someone’s computer to alter it, infect it, and have control over it, witchcraft is the attempt to hack reality and hack “god’s computer” and to hack God and cause problems for God and everyone existing within reality (which is all of God’s creations), it is the endangerment of everyone. God already has a system for how reality needs to be so reality can be orderly and good, but the tampering of reality destroys order and society, and nearly no one would do such a thing unless they had evil intent.
If were to use the metaphor: reality is a like a computer program that God created that we all exist in, like how people who play a videogame online share the same “program” and share and live within the same simulation, then, people who attempt to hack and disturb the fabric of reality, this “computer program” and this “simulation” that we all share, then they are putting everyone at risk, like how a mad scientist who tries to create a black hole, or attempts to find a way to alter space and time laws of physics, is endangering everyone. Everyone will be affected by such actions, and these people who are attempting to go against God, whether it is their intent or not, are destroying the ecosystem that all life depends on to survive. It is therefore a sin to commit witchcraft or go against God’s laws and to fight against and wage war against God’s intended design.
People who commit witchcraft are also people who typically worship a false god, who they use as a mental crutch to justify why they are doing what they are doing and to give them the confidence that the spells and curses they are trying to cast they are doing will work and to give them the faith that there are powers in the universe that will give them the power to perform these feats.
To be clear, there are evil spirits like Satan and his fallen angels who watch the people who desire to perform witchcraft and may lie and pretend to be the gods that these individuals worship and may perform miracles before the spellcaster to make the spellcaster believe that what they are believing and doing is real. This way evil spirits can manipulate humans more easily. When people are addicted to their sins and their desire for power and manipulation, there are spirits in greater dimensions who prey upon these people. The more sinful an individual is, and the farther away from God they are, the easier it is for other spirits to take advantage of them. The same goes for humans among other humans: it is easier for a human to take advantage of another human when they know other people’s weaknesses and when someone can exploit someone else desires.
When a person has a “false idol” or “false god” or has desires that outweigh their desire for goodness and God, they are greatly susceptible for manipulation. It is ironic that those seeking “freedom” and “power” by indulging in sin and manipulating the laws of physics ultimately become manipulated and the least powerful and the least free and they become people who are enslaved by their sin and their desires.
Breaking away from sin and going closer to God is freedom from a world of darkness. Without God and without following God, life becomes an ouroboros of darkness, a snake eating its own tail, devouring itself endlessly, caught in its own trap, a trap created by its own sin and the destructive actions of one’s own nefarious soul.
A Response to Someone Criticizing My Testimony
This is my response to someone criticizing my testimony. I released a video about an atheist who is misleading people from the truth; the video also involved me discussing my testimony that I am Michael from Daniel 12:1; someone else commented on the video. They asserted that because not many people knew of my testimony at this particular moment in time that my testimony could not be true; they claimed that if I was Michael from Daniel 12:1, then God would have essentially already made me known by the world by now; they also stated that I am “at best a false prophet foretold in the Bible” and that I am more likely to be “the antichrist” than a “hack actor.” They also stated that they do not want to be misled by someone and they stated that they did not want to go to hell (presumably for the fear of being led away from God by false teacher).
My answer:
Thank you for your response,
You sound so much like the bad thief next to Jesus while being crucified who taunted Jesus for not saving them; he argued that surely Jesus could not be the Messiah if he was not saving himself. There were Jews who thought Jesus could not be the Messiah because he was not overthrowing the Roman government by force. They had these preconceived notions and manmade expectations of how the prophet of God had to be, and then when God did not cater to their demands of how they claimed reality had to be, they made excuses to not have faith in the truth.
(They claimed that because my videos on YouTube did not have a lot of views that I could not be Michael from Daniel 1:12. There is no prophecy in the Bible where such a thing needs to happen.)
You say that because I have low views on a video after the first few days of releasing it that I must be wrong? How is that logical? You determine how true something is by how many people have heard about and seen the information in the advent of its release? Jesus had 12 disciples while he walked on Earth, not 12 million, was he not the Messiah then? Moses and the Jews who followed him spent 40 years wandering in the desert, was Moses not the prophet then because it was taking 40 years? Judaism is a history of moving by faith while the odds are stacked up against you, so your faith can be stronger than the world; and this is one of the great lessons God is trying to teach all of us: to move through faith and to not throw it all away because of being impatient, so there are times when God does not do all the work for us and spoil us with ease when we are meant to be taught character, virtue, strength, resilience, and faith. And if people lack interest in the truth and what I am saying, that reflects who they are and how they do not care about the truth, it is not a reflection of me, the evidence, and the truth. It is a reflection fo their own character, virtue, strength, resilience, and their own faith. Their rejection of me sheds light on their own sin, pride, and rejection of God, just as the Pharisees who rejected Jesus at his time. Many Jews did not believe in Jesus even when he was performing miracles right in front of them. God is interested in which people are the most dedicated to the truth while it is unpopular to believe in the truth.
The news of Jesus was not instantly known to the whole world during His time on Earth, so you could argue, how could He be the Messiah then?
Most of the world did not know about or believe Jesus was the Messiah when he walked the Earth, was he still not the Messiah? Does the entire world need to know who I am right now for my testimony to be true?
God is working in the time of His own schedule, not yours. God is known to work slowly, He is in no rush to impress you with how fast he can work; it took nearly 2,000 years for the gospel to spread around the world like it has, would you also say that it is impossible that the Bible could be true if it took so long?
A long time for you may not be long time for God. You are just impatient. That’s your own personal gripe with life of being an impatient person of wanting things done “right now!” You ask for this news to reach huge heights “now!” but if it did, you would likely have another excuse to not believe this information, like how you won’t believe the witnesses who have said God contacted them and were told told the same things I was that verify my testimony is true, so why even make any of these arguments if you appear to have already chosen what you want to believe in? You invalidate yourself as a voice of reason by not being measured, unbiased, and consistent with your analysis.
Your argument is essentially that I cannot demonstrate that evidence is 100%, which goes for nearly all evidence. Nearly all evidence takes faith to believe in, that’s how life works. You can argue that nearly everything can never be 100% verified, if so, then everyone should not believe in anything. You cannot 100% verify that anything outside of yourself is real – hold that standard for everything else in your life while you’re at it and reject everything. You can always claim that everything can be a “projection from your mind” and that you are in a dream or that your mind is in a vat somewhere in a matrix simulation, etc. You can come up with an excuse to doubt nearly everything. You can read or watch nearly any history or scientific book or video and say, “These are all just claims that these events occurred and the images in these sources could be doctored.” With respect, and no insult intended, the standard for evidence you are using is impractical and willfully ignorant and you are arguing out of bad faith. In that case, why believe in anything because everything could be a conspiracy? When you have multiple people who never knew who I was prior confirming my testimony is true because God told them, you are being willfully ignorant. These people have nothing to gain from saying this, and only have social backlash and people treating them like they are stupid and crazy for saying this; how could it not be true? You think that multiple people are randomly saying that God told them that I am Michael the messenger of God and that Jared Leto is the Antichrist? You think that’s not a sign from God? It is not my intention to insult you, but that is being unintelligent and either being willfully ignorant or having low pattern recognition, which is one of the most important aspects to intelligence. I say this not to insult you but to help you from being nonsensical and so you can see the truth. You are against evidence. Why ask for evidence if you will simply call it a conspiracy if you don’t want to believe in it? If you are not going to use evidence to come to conclusions about reality, then you will not know reality.
Also, you say you think I am more likely to be “the antichrist” than an actor; I ask you, why would God make the name of the Antichrist “Michael” if Michael is prophesied to appear for God’s people in Daniel 12:1? Why would God use the same name for the Antichrist and the prophet of God? Do you think God does this just to be extra confusing? And prophecies are prophesies because they would never be replicated; they are prophecies for the purpose for showing the truth and God would not confuse a prophecy by allowing the world to witness a false prophecy fulfilling the same description of a true biblical prophecy, otherwise that would defeat the whole purpose of a prophecy to begin with. Therefore, arguing that my testimony is a false prophecy is nonsensical. Jared Leto has a global cult and is placing marks on his follower’s bodies; the symbol is a Christian cross defaced by the new order of the ages symbol; it just so happens that an individual named Michael is here on earth at this time being told by God that Jared Leto is the Antichrist; multiple people are claiming God demonstrated to them that Jared Leto is the Antichrist and that this same Michael is the prophet of God – this would not occur if it was not the truth. It is nonsensical and arguably “crazy” to believe that this is not the truth. I ask you, what may be wrong with you and your sin nature to deny the truth?
You made the argument as to why the whole world does not celebrate what I say. Jesus said, “Woe to you when everyone speaks well of you, for that is how their ancestors treated the false prophets.” People who speak the truth are hated by the world because the world loves to live in it’s lies and avoid obeying God and the messenger he sends to make people obey Him, so people often ignore me. Most often people in powerful positions are in their positions of power and influence because they are power hungry and want to be like a god themselves. So, someone like myself who is here to make them obey someone else (God) is a threat to these people in power, and then they do not tell the world I am here. People in power are gatekeepers of the truth to the rest of humanity so they can keep people underneath their control by not letting them know who they should really be following. This is why the world does not know.
Thank you for conversing with me, even though we are arguing, I do appreciate you making the effort. You say you do not want to go to hell; I do not want you to go there either. You sound like you do not want to believe in something that is not true and be deceived; I do not want you to be deceived either; that is precisely why God brought me here, to prevent humanity from being deceived and pointing out to people how they are being deceived so they do not go to hell; which is the overall message of these videos that I am releasing about leaders who are deceiving people.

To those challenging my testimony: The best you can do is sound clever while being wrong.
A response to someone accusing me of “working for Jared Leto” and that Jared Leto and I are “inventing” the idea that Jared Leto is the Antichrist for a publicity stunt.
Notice how illogical his line of reasoning is: Apparently, this guy thinks Jared Leto paid me to make videos about how he is (allegedly) molesting children as a publicity stunt. Why would Jared Leto hire someone to provide evidence of how horrible of a person he is and that there are strong and convincing allegations that he’s molesting children?
Apparently, this guy also must think Jared Leto hired me to go to Los Angeles on 3 separate occasions to have a lawsuit with him. How does that make sense? The court documents show that the trial kept getting pushed back so both of us could have more time to prepare to win the lawsuit. So, this guy would probably suggest that was all staged as well? That's ridiculous.
Why would Jared Leto file a lawsuit against me to censor all of this information with the possibility of the judge preventing all of this information from being released? If Jared Leto wants this information to get out for a publicity stunt, why hire someone to have a lawsuit against yourself that could cause the judge to possibly side with Jared and ban the publicity stunt? That would defeat the purpose of having a publicity stunt. A
Apparently, he is also arguing that Jared Leto hired all the people that were told by God he’s the Antichrist? I have video interviews of these people that I have posted on my website. If this is a publicity stunt then why doesn’t Jared Leto just mention me and how I’m accusing him of being the Antichrist on his own social media accounts and really start making people talk about this?
Every single person who challenges the legitimacy of my testimony me fails like this, they always fail to make sense. It’s interesting that other than Jared Leto being the Antichrist, he appears to be unable imagine any other plausible explanation to all this besides saying that this was an orchestrated publicity stunt by Jared Leto - he's unknowingly implying that if this isn't an orchestrated event (which it obviously isn't) then this evidence does in fact prove he is the Antichrist. He’s just in denial that this is actually happening and he’s trying to come up with every excuse he can to deny it for some erroneous reason. And by coming up with an erroneous explanation to explain away the evidence, he only ends up demonstrating how I'm right, and that there is no other plausible explanation to all of this besides Jared Leto being the Antichrist.
Why are there animal sacrifices in the Torah (the Old Testament)?
This is a question someone purposed to me. They were puzzled about why God would include animal sacrifices in the spiritual diet of his followers. They were repulsed by it and thought there was something wrong about it.
To begin to understand the idea behind animal sacrifices - it is sad - it is disturbing. Jews were told to sacrifice an animal to cleanse them of their sin - essentially taking something that is innocent to replace the horrible thing they did, which has them reflect on how they are destroying something innocent when they sin, just how when we sin in general, we are destroying ourselves and society and the people around us, because our sins always affects those around us - every time. And animal sacrifices were an eye opener to this sad occasion. It is likely that we are meant to feel bad sacrificing animals so we may live and be right with God, that it is unfair, just how it is unfair that God, in the form of Yeshua (Jesus), was sacrificed on our behalf, how the animals sacrificed where killed on our behalf as well. And just how the animals we eat die on our behalf so we can live, Jesus said, "This is my blood and this is my body. Eat.”
Humanity consumed Christ in a similar way as if he was an animal, so they may survive, and not die from God’s judgement of their sins and the way they seem to perpetually sin and not stop.
This is one of the ways I see animal sacrifices, these sacrifices are a way to humble humanity to understand that someone innocent suffers and pays for the cost of our sins when we sin and when we ask for forgiveness; someone or something dies to redeem us. And witnessing an animal die for what we did wrong helps humans tangibly understand how their sins are hurting other people and causing the soul of humanity to die.
The topic of sacrificing animals reminds me of a scene in the film Full Metal Jacket where the rest of the squadron must physically suffer due to another soldier’s sin. And watching how others suffer in this visceral way helps the sinner confront their sin in a more profound way than if they were physically punished themselves. Since sin causes disorder and chaos and physical and spiritual death for everyone else in the world, seeing how other people suffer and die, or in this particular case animals, is a way for people can understand how their sin is killing others and God’s system of animal sacrificing is a way to confront a person’s sin, the death that they are spreading to others and the innocent, and how it destroys the spiritual equilibrium of the universe.
There are other explanations that are given, like how some people claim the soul resides physically in the blood of someone and how this is why God has blood sacrifices, so an innocent soul can eliminate the sin in people.
But regardless of whether the soul resides in blood or not, Jesus needed to come down to Earth to be the example of what a perfect person is like to teach people what kind of person they need to become to enter His Kingdom. Jesus demonstrated humility, servitude through helping people, and Jesus also demonstrated how He stands up and fights against evil, like how He fought against the Pharisees. Fighting against evil is a virtue that needed to be taught to humanity. He is willing to die for God and for doing the right thing.
God wants humanity to obey Him and be willing to die for Him, but if you were to ask the question, “Why should I die for someone who wouldn’t die for me?” God led by example and demonstrated that He would do this and that He does have this quality Himself about humanity.
The culmination of the teaching that Jesus had to give to humanity was to to teach them that they must be obedient to God even if it meant their death, so to demonstrate how to be this person, God did it Himself. Teaching humanity how to enter His kingdom included him sacrificing his own life. God teaching the Hebrews how sacrificing a perfect unblemished innocent animal absolves sin prepares humanity for understanding how Jesus’ sacrifice prepares the way to absolves sin if we follow Him and repent and become like Him, so we can ultimately become a type of person who sins no more; and when we agree to this process of eventually becoming someone who sins no more, then God truly forgives our sins. The debt of your sin is paid through the sacrifice of Jesus if you obey God through followling Jesus and using Him as your example.
This is the horrific sacrifice God made to create a path for humans to enter His Kingdom, a debt that God paid that He did not have to pay, a debt that humanity cannot ever repay. Jesus died for humanity’s sins.
Alyssa Roat from Christianity.com reiterates some of the points I made here:
“To understand animal sacrifice, we must start at the beginning. Genesis 3 records the story of the fall of humanity, during which Adam and Eve disobeyed God, bringing sin into the world.
Genesis 3:21 then records the first death in the Bible, when God made clothes for Adam and Eve out of animal skin. Presumably, this would have been shocking and horrifying to the first couple. It was a graphic demonstration of the nature of their sin. Because they sinned, they now had to be clothed, or covered. That covering was only accomplished by the shedding of blood, a metaphor for their spiritual death and a foreshadowing of things to come.
Things only went downhill. By the second generation of humanity, Cain killed his brother Abel in jealousy, which was the first murder.
Mankind grew so wicked that only a single God-fearing man was left.
Hailing back to the Garden of Eden and Adam and Eve, recall that God made a “covering” for the first couple, to cover over their nakedness. They were still sinful, but God had given them a covering. Blood was shed because of their sin. This would become a recurring theme.
The way animals were prepared for different types of offerings was also deeply symbolic, as in the case of the “scapegoat,” in which one goat was slaughtered and another released into the wild, metaphorically carrying away the sin of Israel (Leviticus 6:1-34).
Unlike other deities of the time, an angry God was not being “appeased” by these offerings. Rather, in His love, He offered a way for His people’s sin to be covered over, so that they could approach Him. Rebellion and sin required death. They were not to be taken lightly. In order for the Israelites to gain forgiveness, something had to die.
It was a painful process, yes. That was the point. Sin led to death. It was serious. In order to avoid their own destruction because of their sin, the Israelites had to offer something innocent to die in their place—in this case, an animal without blemish.
Unfortunately, this was not enough. The sinful nature of people led them to sin again and again. No amount of animal blood could completely wash them clean or pay for the death price they owed.
The centuries of animal blood weren’t the only thing that pointed to a need for something greater. The nation of Israel quickly fell apart, and its history was checkered with war, oppression, and serious immorality. In the end, they were carried away into captivity in Assyria and Babylon, and only returned to Israel as a subjugated people, first to Babylon, then Persia, all the way until the Roman Empire. God’s chosen people were a disaster.
There was no natural means for forgiveness. No amount of animal sacrifices would be enough; the blood served as a reminder of the people’s endless guilt, the death that would come to them in the contrast between their own sinful nature and the consuming fire of Holiness.
Israel (now known as the Jews) knew that forgiveness required blood, and that “the wages of sin is death” (Romans 6:23).
Mankind, deserving of death, could only be redeemed by the blood of something great enough to cover all humanity, and nothing could be that great but the Divine Himself. When Jesus Christ came, He was the perfect sacrifice, without blemish. As the animals offered had to be pure, He was perfect, without sin. And as death was required, someone had to die. The blood of life had to be poured out on the dead, mankind, and the scapegoat had to take on the sin of the people.
Jesus’ death and resurrection made animal sacrifice obsolete; what more could animal blood add to the cleansing blood of Christ Himself? There is no longer a curtain between the people and the Holy of Holies (Matthew 27:51). Fully cleansed by the blood of Christ, believers can stand in the presence of God.
Animal sacrifice in the Bible reminds us of the horror of sin.
When we look back at the sacrificial rituals of the Old Testament and are rightly horrified, we are reminded of the immense, unpayable debt of sin, and the incalculable amount of blood needed to bring life back to a dead soul.”
Besides what has been discussed, animals were also someone’s livelihood and a valuable commodity and resource for food and materials for clothing, to sacrifice and animal would be a great loss to a person’s wealth and survival. Someone sacrificing something of this value helps a person reflect on their sin and what they lose because of it.
