Bible Study - Avoiding the Deception that Separates

The people of God (the wheat) and the people who pretend to be Gods people (the tares) will be
separated on the Harvest. The reapers are the angels, described in Matthew 13. The Harvest will
take place in the seven year tribulation. There are people who claim to be Christians and there are
people who walk it out, who walk as Jesus walked, who walk in faith and in the promises of God and
receive them by faith and manifest them in patience. The tares being separated from the wheat,
meaning the fake being separated from the real, is the Great Falling Away that will occur in the
tribulation. Like Moses and the Jews, they will fall off by walking by sight; not by faith. They will
believe what they see and dont believe what they cannot see. God exhorts us to call the things
that are not, as though they were (Romans 4:17). So even if theres an earthquake and everyone
around us is dying: God said Hell protect us and as long as we abide in Him, He will save us (Psalm
91 covering). Despite everything that happens around us and everything we see with our physical
eyes, our own trial and test is to stick to what God says and not turn from it no matter what. God
will separate the tares from the wheat, using delusion. Thats His judgment on them, but because
Hes gracious and merciful, Hell call them back to Himself and teach them whatever needs to be
taught in order to become pure and unleavened.
The wonders of the false prophets and so on will cause people to be turned over to delusion
because they dont love the truth (obey), they dont love the Word of God. They have pleasure in
unrighteousness, not righteousness (only righteousness is Christ). Just like the churches nowadays
completely disregard the verse in Matthew where Jesus tells His disciples to pick up their cross,
deny themselves and follow Him. Theyre prideful and want to do what THEY think is necessary
and important. They ignore the Lord and His ways and theres gonna come a time where Hes
gonna ignore them back because of their wicked ways. Aint no playing around with God.
The devils false wonders dont deliver people, dont heal people; we are to look at the fruit of
those so called wonders and miracles, like Jesus said in Matthew 12 to judge the false prophets
and others by their fruits. Were always to test the spirits to see whether they are from God
because if Satan can disguise or clothe himself as an angel of light, how much can his demons
clothe themselves as angels or heavenly beings? Gods miracles are not for entertainment or to
solely show Hes real, theyre to set the captives free, to free the prisoners, those who are in
bondage to spirits of infirmity and so on. To heal people, deliver people and even exercise
judgment upon the lost (Revelation 11). False prophets never prophesy the real truth. Theres
always something missing or going slightly different than Gods truth. God is sovereign always.
Hell put His people on the right path; those who love Him by obeying His commandments. The
Lord will try us with deception, seeing if we buy into it or not; if we love the Word or not; if we abide
in it and dont accept anything else.
Thou shalt not hearken unto the words of that prophet, or unto that dreamer of dreams: for
Jehovah your God privet you, to know whether ye love Jehovah your God with all your heart and
with all your soul. Ye shall walk after Jehovah your God (Deuteronomy 13:3-4)
This separates the wheat from the tares. Deceptions like pre-tribulation rapture, once saved always
saved, eternal security and so on are things that only came in these latter days to test the people
of God. Others do not accept this truth; they are turned over to delusion.
What will avoid deception in the latter days (now):
Loving the Word, adding nothing to it and taking nothing from it
Obey the Word only, nothing else; pure unleavened bread. No man made rules or religiosity kind
of stuff.
Test the spirits; physical and spiritual, always have a foundation > the Word of God and if it does
NOT line up with the Word, its not from God. God is the same today, yesterday and forever. If it
resembles, not precisely, an act of God: it is NOT of God.
