For today's prophecy update, I do need to address the Islamic terrorist attack that took place on Thursday in Barcelona, Spain.

However, I want for us to peel back the layers and get to the core of what I believe is a wholesale ignorance that's fueled by a satanic deception and it's coupled with God sending a strong delusion.

It is my personal belief that said deception and delusion is the greatest threat that we face from within as a nation and perhaps more importantly

as a church as well.

I want to draw your attention to the Apostle Paul's second letter to the church in Thessalonica chapter two.

I want to read verses 9 through 12.

He says, the coming of the lawless one, lawless one, very interesting, is according to the

working of Satan with all power, signs, and lying wonders, and with all unrighteous deception

among those who perish.

And here's why.

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, that they may all be condemned who did not believe

the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.

On Thursday, as I was watching the news coverage of this Islamic attack, and that's why I,

you understand, I'll never call it radical Islam.

That's a redundancy.

Islam is radical.

Well, I don't know.

That's another topic for another time.

It hit me as I'm watching this

that there was no mention

of Islam whatsoever
