Yes. Anyone who is a Christian who ever doubted that Satan is alive and well, surely, will doubt no more. He comes in so many forms to deceive the very smartest among us and he always comes to destroy. This week, the following verses were a part of my Bible study and when I read them, I immediately thought of the leftist news media who seem to never let up on untruths and distortions. These are Paul's words from Romans:1:28-32. “Furthermore, since they, (godless and the wicked), did not think it worth while to retain the knowledge of God, he gave them over to a depraved mind, to do what ought not to be done. They have become filled with every kind of wickedness, evil, murder, strife, deceit, and malice. They are gossips, slanderers, God-haters, insolent, arrogant and boastful; they invent ways of doing evil; they disobey their parents; they are senseless, faithless, heartless and ruthless. They do not only continue to do these things, but they approve of those who practice them.”
That about covers it, I think. God is real and He is sovereign. Will he stop this? Yes, he will. No one knows how or when, but it will stop and ultimately, evil will end and every knee will bow.
The coming of the lawless one is according to the working of Satan, with all power, signs, and lying wonders, and with all unrighteous deception among those who perish, because they did not receive the love of the truth, that they might be saved. And for this reason God will send them strong delusion, that they should believe the lie...—2 Thessalonians 2:9-11
Excellent verse. Our pastor is preaching through Romans and he camped out quite a while on those verses.
I agree we need to be praying like never before.
