Many times I have read of Jesus being tempted by the devil. I have read where many are tempted and too often they yield. What would it take for you to yield if the devil wanted your soul? Many have stated they have sold their souls to the devil for money and fame. What they were offered was just too great for them to turn down. I have thought about writing a fictitious book about a person selling their soul for a great opportunity based on the following Scripture.
Luke 4:5 – 7 – “The devil led him up to a high place and showed him in an instant all the kingdoms of the world. And he said to him, ‘I will give you all their authority and splendor; it has been given to me, and I can give it to anyone I want to. If you worship me, it will all be yours.’”
The book would start out by the devil taking a young politician to a high place and saying: “I can make you president of the United States and give you authority and splendor. The devil said it has been given to me and I can give it to anyone I want.”
I hope the majority of people reading this book would not believe anything written to be authentic. I am sure most would not even believe there are evil powers seeking to control people. But if there is the slightest chance it could happen, would you make a contract for your soul to be the president of the United States? Satan is the world’s greatest deceiver, so I hope you would not allow yourself to be sold a bill of goods for a few years of power and notoriety and lose your soul as a result. It would separate you from God throughout eternity.
To make the book interesting, we must assume the politician sells his soul and is elected president. Initially, the president does not realize that it is the devil’s eventual goal to destroy both America and Israel God’s chosen nations.
Those possessed with evil can be very likeable and pleasant, they often lie or exaggerate, they have no feelings of guilt, can be very manipulative, they can be very misleading and they need to continually be stimulated, they have little empathy for others, often depend on others for their lifestyle, irresponsible, sexually promiscuous, will admit to no wrong and will blame others, their overall behavior is usually unacceptable to fundamentalists.
Over 2000 years ago, Satan influenced and controlled the Roman leaders and the Sanhedrin or Jewish leadership. Approximately 1/3 of the populations were slaves. Conditions were horrible, with little morality or justice. History indicates it may have been as bad as prior to Noah’s flood. Was God about to destroy mankind again or should He send His Son to make a difference in the world? We all know what choice He made. God must send Christ a second time; otherwise the world, in the near future is ruled by the antichrist, will destroy itself as told in Scripture. Christ will come to reign for a 1000 years on earth. We will then know what God had planned for Adam and Eve because Satan will not be with us to continually deceive and tempt human beings.
Occult leaders from the beginning of America believed our country was being established to lead the world into forming a one-world-government controlled by their leader, Lucifer’s Antichrist. Again, I am only writing what supposedly history tells us. For those who are knowledgeable of occult symbols indicate that Washington, D.C. has a number of satanic symbols throughout our capital. In addition, within miles of the capital there are a number of occult groups who worship the devil. Supposedly, percentagewise, surrounding our capital is the largest concentration of devil worshippers in America.
The book, if written, states that the devil tells the newly elected president there are eight things he must do.
They are as follows:
1. To control the people you must get control of healthcare.
2. Increase the level of poverty because poor people are easier to control than those economically sufficient. They will have the least desire to cause a problem if the government is providing most of what they need.
3. Put America into debt to such an extent it will create a need to raise taxes and produce more poverty.
4. Government must control all guns. Americans must not be able to defend themselves thus justifying a police state.
5. Establish as much welfare as possible. The more government can control their lives through food, housing and income subsidies the more they can be government controlled.
6. Take control of education and provide what they can read and learn in school.
7. It is essential that belief in a God is removed from schools and government.
8. Divide the people into two classes, the rich and the poor, so that as much discontent is sowed allowing for the taxing of the rich. The poor will support this move.
To destroy Israel the devil chooses Hamas to attack Israel with rockets. Israel attacks the Gaza strip destroying military facilities and government buildings. The devil also influences Lebanon to send rockets into Israel. Israel attacking the Palestinians infuriates the Islamic nations. As described in Ezekiel Chapters 36 thru 39 a huge army from the north attacks Israel with the purpose to wipe them off the face of the earth. Israel and America will continue to be under the devil’s target as he uses terrorists to inflict serious damage.
Somewhere in the book it must be noted that God chose Israel as His nation in the Old Testament and selected America in the New Testament to spread His Word to the world. Satan or the devil’s plan is to destroy the two nations that God has used to bring love, peace and prosperity to the entire world. Really what is happening is the devil believing He can lead God’s people to reject God. The devil will use force on Israel and America to get back at God. Defeat these two countries and he can control the world.
It appears God has allowed the devil to take us closer toward the time of desolation and destruction. Then comes the rapture and Christ will come to reign on earth. When that happens there will no longer be a devil, demon possessed people, atheists or hateful people on earth. Everyone remaining will have the Holy Spirit in their lives, without exception. It will be a time of peace and no wars any longer. Are you ready?
