    DECEPTION

    Play Episode Listen Later Mar 24, 2022 65:29


    There is a great deception being pushed in the world today. Everything from the plandemic to the war in Ukraine, the media has an agenda that is becoming more and more obvious. As first responders, we need to know the truth before we ever set foot into the world, or we'll be susceptible to any lie that comes our way. The best way to identify a counterfeit is to be so familiar with the authentic that any fake will be easily distinguished. In Matthew 24, the first thing Jesus said to the disciples regarding end times was "Be sure you are not deceived". It seems that is one of the main signs we are to be aware of, and it's happening all around. www.thinlinebelievers.com thinlinebelievers@gmail.com Instagram: @thinlinebelievers
