eclectic truth.283.09
As Christians, we must be prepared for persecution.
As Catholics; sometimes we face more attacks from members in our Church, than outside of it.
We must appreciate and learn to live in a world, that at times may revolt against us being in it.

Friday

who am not..



‘The snorting of his horses, were foretold by Daniel’..

And make no mistake; this is no man of myth, but of flesh and blood.

‘He will be filled with hatred and violence, wearing a mask of goodwill; he will have cunning and deception and will resort to intimidation and the earth will bend beneath his scepter; he will be a learned philosopher, a skillful orator, celebrated in the art of policy and the manufactured sciences; he will repel mockery and ridicule like a snake shedding skin. His rein will be magical, filled with trickery and fame.

Why?
..’this will be permitted to all who have not believed the truth but have delighted in iniquity and will be condemned. God will permit them to be attracted to this false messiah, according credence to his deeds and doctrine, and to follow him in this fiendish life.’

..‘As he succeeds in overcoming the virtuous by a persecution carried to the extreme limit, he will be allowed free rein to all kinds of injustice, and there will be no freedom except for evil.’
