Watch Out For The Mockers Series
Contributed by Pastor Norman Bailey, Overseer on Aug 8, 2018 (message contributor)
Summary: We are living in the last of the last days and Satan is pulling out his best shot to defeat the people of God. He is using mockers, those who will belittle our faith and confidence in God. It is our position to stand against them and trust in God.
As we draw closer to the end of time we will find the forces of evil lead by Satan trying to deliver a death blow to the followers of Jesus Christ. It is important that we stay focused on what the Word of God says concerning the people of God. Mockers come with an aggressive and militant attack against us. We must abide in our faith in Jesus Christ alone.
Mockers in the last days will say things like: '
1: You are not really saved, you are full of the devil.
2: If God loved you so much why are going through so much.
If they mocked Jesus certainly we will be mocked being his followers. In this verse shows us that Jesus was flogged and mocked by the Roman Soldiers. Even in all of this Jesus knew who he was and did not take it personal. He was focused on his love for us and dying and shedding his precious blood for us. We must follow his example and not take it personal when we are being mocked for Jesus sake.
Peter wrote before his death. warning us ( the believer) that some will even mock us by saying that Jesus is not coming back. Can we see this vicious attack against us. Christ is our hope and the one we look for!!!!! Col. 1:27
We are in a fight beloved and we must fight the good fight of faith. We must continue to pray, read the Word of God and fast. We are in the fight of our lives. So do not give up but hold on until the end.
In my conclusion so sober and vigilant for our adversary (Satan ) is walking about seeking whom he may devour,. If a angel come down from heaven and preach another gospel let him be accursed. Gal.1:8
