How and when does Satan personate Christ?

I don't think that's scriptural, is it?

If you can show me some definitive scriptures that explicitly say that probation ends before the 2nd Coming, I'll consider what you and Ellen propose. 


Rev 22:11  He that is unjust, let him be unjust still: and he which is filthy, let him be filthy still: and he that is righteous, let him be righteous still: and he that is holy, let him be holy still.
Rev 22:12  And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be.
Rev 22:13  I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last.

How and when will Satan personate Christ in these last days?

"History will be repeated."

Isa_45:1  "Thus saith the LORD to his anointed, to Cyrus, whose right hand I have holden, to subdue nations before him; and I will loose the loins of kings, to open before him the two leaved gates; and the gates shall not be shut;"

Dan 5:6  "Then the king's countenance was changed, and his thoughts troubled him, so that the joints of his loins were loosed..."

During ancient Babylon's last orgy the joints of the king's loins were loosed.

Dan 5:27  "TEKEL; Thou art weighed in the balances, and art found wanting."

Dan 5:28  "PERES; Thy kingdom is divided, and given ..." [to those who Cyrus was to rule]

Dan 5:29  "They clothed Daniel with scarlet, and put a chain of gold about his neck, and made a proclamation concerning him, that he should be the third ruler in the kingdom." [Kings Nabonidus, Belshazzar, Daniel]

"Rev 18:2-3  "Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen...for all nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, and the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her"

Pope Benedict resigned 28 February 2013 in the midst of a fornication scandal focusing on the priests "loose loins".

The prophetic earth (USA, June 2015) has committed the priests' fornication (gay sex) to be America's law of the land. 

Papal-Babylon now has two living popes/kings with there soon to be a third when history repeats.

And ISIS is drying up the Euphrates River [people (Rev. 17:15) along Euphrates flee for their lives]

"The pope is the Vicar of Christ"

When will Satan personate Christ? When history is repeated and Babylon has its third ruler/king.

Pope Francis is a Short-Timer - Loudcryer right again?
 
You don't have long to wait to see Satan personate Christ.
 
" Satan will not only appear as a human being, but he will personate Jesus Christ; and the world who has rejected the truth will receive him as the Lord of lords and King of kings. He will exercise his power, and work upon the human imagination." {RH, April 14, 1896 par. 6}

To anyone who has about an hour and a quarter, this will help to verify the lion is roaring. But more important is the joy of knowing your name is written in the Lamb's book of life.

After 26 people checked out my link, I thought: I can do better-- so I updated my previous post below:

 

"Study Revelation in connection with Daniel, for history will be repeated"  {1888 1491.1}

Isa_45:1  "Thus saith the LORD to his anointed, to Cyrus, whose right hand I have holden, to subdue nations before him; and I will loose the loins of kings, to open before him the two leaved gates; and the gates shall not be shut;"

Dan 5:6  "Then the king's countenance was changed, and his thoughts troubled him, so that the joints of his loins were loosed..."

During the orgy the night that ancient Babylon fell, the joints of the king's loins were loosed.

Dan 5:27  "TEKEL; Thou art weighed in the balances, and art found wanting."

Dan 5:28  "PERES; Thy kingdom is divided, and given ..." [to those who Cyrus was to rule]

Dan 5:29  "They clothed Daniel with scarlet, and put a chain of gold about his neck, and made a proclamation concerning him, that he should be the third ruler in the kingdom." [Kings Nabonidus, Belshazzar, Daniel]

"Rev 18:2-3  "Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen...for all nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, and the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her" [as ancient Babylon was fallen, so was papal Babylon]

Pope Benedict resigned 28 February 2013 in the midst of a fornication scandal that focused on its priests' "loose loins".

The prophetic earth is fallen: when  USA committed the priests' fornication (gay sex) to be America's law of the land.

The Supreme Court of apostate protestant America was fallen on June 2015 when it embraced papal Babylon's fornication  

Papal-Babylon now has two living popes/kings as ancient Babylon had 2 kings until Daniel was made 3rd ruler

There is soon to be a third pope/king when Babylon's history repeats.

Because ISIS is drying up the Euphrates River [people (Rev. 17:15) along Euphrates are fleeing for their lives]

"The pope is the Vicar of Christ"

When will Satan personate Christ? When history is repeated and Babylon has its third ruler/king?

There is more, but this is a quick synopsis to say that Jesus is even at the door.

“Though no man knoweth the day nor the hour of His coming, we are instructed and required to know when it is near. We are further taught that to disregard His warning, and refuse or neglect to know when His Advent is near, will be as fatal for us, as it was for those who lived in the days of Noah not to know when the flood was coming. And the parable in the same chapter contrasting the faithful and the unfaithful servant, and giving the doom of him who said in his heart, ‘My Lord delayeth His coming,’ shows in what light Christ will regard and reward those whom He finds watching, and teaching His coming, and those denying it. ‘Watch therefore,’ He says; ‘blessed is that servant, whom his Lord when He cometh shall find so doing’ [Matthew 24:3, 33, 42-51]. ‘If therefore thou shalt not watch, I will come on thee as a Thief, and thou shalt not know what hour I will come upon thee’ [Revelation 3:3].” (GC88 370.2)

Christian regards.

I don't look at these verses as pointing to some sort of "closed door".  As you know from previous discussions, I don't necessarily accept everything that comes forth from the pen of EGW and her editors.  That's just me - I'm not saying you're wrong; I'm just saying I don't see it that way.

I see this as Jesus telling people that they have a free will to do whatever they want; but there are consequences.  If you choose to not repent, you will indeed be unjust and filthy (by heaven's standards) in your own works.  If you choose to overcome by the blood of the Lamb, you will indeed be righteous (covered by the righteousness of Christ) and holy (set apart for God).

At least for some the closed door is inferred here.

28 Likewise also as it was in the days of Lot; they did eat, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they builded;

29 But the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all.

30 Even thus shall it be in the day when the Son of man is revealed......Luke 17

For those faithful to the King there is never any long enduring tribulation period beyond this before being cut off.

10 Fear none of those things which thou shalt suffer: behold, the devil shall cast some of you into prison, that ye may be tried; and ye shall have tribulation ten days: be thou faithful unto death, and I will give thee a crown of life......Revelation 2

Pretrib rapture relies on the gap theory of Daniel 9 but we already know the 70th week can't be separated from the 69th as the 70 weeks is a probation period of Israel. If we know the pretrib rapture is false then we know Jesus raptures all the saved AFTER the tribulation. 

Then we establish the close of probation through the "mark of the beast" is also the beginning of the tribulation. Tribulation then goes through 7 bowls of wrath and then the coming and rapture.

To clarify, I am not a proponent of a pre-trib rapture.  Both Daniel and Revelation are clear that the church is still around and will almost be conquered during the Tribulation. I am a proponent of a pre-wrath rapture (i.e., Christ will appear in the sky; the dead in Christ will awaken and together with the living saved will be taken off of the earth.  At this time, probation is closed; because there are no more "saveable" people on the planet.  The seven bowls of wrath fall, wiping out almost all life on earth.  Then Christ and the saints come back to the surface of the earth to establish the millennial reign.

Another thing that I believe is that sin will not be absent during the millennium.  Obviously, it still exists when satan is set free to gather forces for the attack on the New Jerusalem.

I reserve the right to be wrong; and/or to change my mind at any time.  I am open to alternative scenarios.  Just because I have an opinion doesn't mean I'm right and you're wrong.  It simple means we currently believe differently.

hch,

You insult my intelligence! :runcry:I am sufficiently studied to know that Revelation was not written by EGW; and I know that EGW never wrote any scripture.  If you think these verses allude to an end of probation, feel free to do so.  With that mindset, I don't see any wiggle room.  I don't believe they point to an end of probation.  I explained my opinion above.  Therefore I have all the wiggle room in the universe.

JoeMo,

I refuse to insult your intelligence, because I have read many of the things that you wrote. But if I com across as doing the unthinkable, it might be because as I age I don't always catch the drift. Something is missing from our conversation.

I wrote:

Rev 22:11  He that is unjust, let him be unjust still: and he which is filthy, let him be filthy still: and he that is righteous, let him be righteous still: and he that is holy, let him be holy still.
Rev 22:12  And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be.

My reply was pointing out that I gave Scripture. I did not give Ellen White who you had told me you did not value.

SO in regards to the Scripture that you do value

Do those Scriptures settle the issue for you?

Sorry, no.  Like I said before,(twice) IMHO these scriptures point to a choice people must make. If you want to remain evil - go ahead.  If you want to be holy - go ahead.  God will never take away our free will to repent. Our free will is one of the main things that makes us human; and "made in the image of God". To say that a time is coming in this age where God won't let us make a choice for or against Him implies that we could no longer choose Christ.  If that time comes, it happens IMMEDIATELY before the 7 bowls of wrath - not 3-1/2 years prior.

Hey JoeMo,

Thanks for the note

I cannot reconcile the view that you are explaining with the Days of Noah.

They had the choice to go into the ark or not to go in.

When the door was shut, it was too late to go in.

When Jesus pronounces the filthy to be filthy still,

why should anyone think that it was not too late to change their mind?

The antediluvian's probation ended when the door to the ark was shut and it started raining.  Humanity's probation will end when the saved living and dead are resurrected and taken into the sky or when an individual otherwise dies.

So what does it mean for Jesus to bring His reward with Him? (If He does not know who has settled into the faith when He comes?)

Jesus will know. He probably already knows, since He knows the Beginning from the End.  Don't you think so?  His "reward" will be either eternal life for the saved, or "the wages of sin" for the unsaved.  No rocket surgery here.

That just isn't true Joe. Probation has ended when the mark of the beast is applied. 

And when is that mark applied?  If you can accept that the events of Revelation happen consecutively (which I do), the formal warning about receiving the mark occurs in Rev. 14:9-12 and during the 6th and/or 7thTrumpet, which is right before the harvest of the earth (pre-wrath rapture or separating wheat and tares) which happens in Rev. 14:13-19; which happens right before the outpouring of the 7 bowls in Rev. 15 and 16 - just like I said earlier.  Probation is not closed for 1260 days.

The first WOE aligns with the 5th trumpet &

the second WOE aligns with the 6th trumpet.

My study indicates that the first 2 woes are past and the third is not far off.

I hope I didn't give you the impression that I dismiss your ideas summarily.  I do not.  Your predictions for the most part have been pretty accurate.  If the legacy of Pope Francis unfolds as you predict, I may have to rethink some things.  Even though I don't interpret things the way you do, I admire your scholarship and the way in which you engage people.  I have never felt personally attacked by you.  The "you insult my intelligence" comment was just me being a smart-aleck.

Just curious...  Are most of those posting to this subject Seventh-day Adventist?   I'm not recognizing too much in the way of my understanding of Biblical and EGW's light on that Biblical prophecy.

I have been an Adventist since 1955! My mother studied her Bible and found the Sabbath through THE HOLY SPIRIT! She asked her pastor (my mother was a devoted Black Missionary Baptist), she felt that the Bible was not just for the Hebrew or so call Judaic religion. She felt it was for everyone. We left the South moved to the North, New Haven CT. She started having all types of so call Christian religions to study with, including Jehovah Witness. She asked them all about the Sabbath none could give her a straight answer from the Bible. This include Catholic, Baptist, Presbyterians, Methodist and many others. At her job this guy was playing around using Scriptures from the Bible. She got on him and he showed her he was taking Bible studies, he gave her one of the lessons. She said she heard a voice state this is what you have been looking for. She took Bible studies and they kept saying they keep all of the Commandments. She stopped them asked about what day is the Sabbath! They would not tell her Saturday, instead the 7th day of the week. She made them tell her that the day is Saturday and she shouted for joy! 

Them she kept the Sabbath in the VA hospital even though others were SDA. She prayed and all said a light came over her and refuse to break the Sabbath anymore. Her boss was a Catholic and a military Nurse working in the VA in 1955. My mother was the only one who kept the Sabbath in New Haven VA Hospital!!!!!!! My mother was baptized and my father was struggling but stood to be baptized the very next Sabbath he was dead!!!!!! My mother remain faithful, she sold EGW books and Arthur S. Maxwell. She became also a great Bible Teacher on her job and community. Ask Mount Zion church in New Haven CT. and the South Atlantic Conference here. My aunts became Adventist, (only one left about 20 years ago, one died in the truth.) She also got discounts and bought all of EGW own writings, Arthur S. Maxwell children books and the green Bible SDA Commentaries. I wore out volume 1. I studied everything and check everything out especially Genesis. Adventist did not believe in the trinity and still don't. We knew that it came from Constantine during the fight with Arianism from the Jesuit priest. We did not believe in either view, we believe that THE FATHER, THE SON and THE HOLY SPIRIT were SUPREME BEINGS. We did not fully understand everything neither did EGW!!!!!! We believed in her visions not all she wrote because it was base on history during the early 1800. I became a Bible Historian because of Gen Chapter 10 and what the SDA stated about Ham read it please! Yes, I left the truth but not my faith, I never joined another so call Christian religion. Do I have problems with SDA today, yes I do. We have allowed the tares to creep just like during the time of YAHSHUA! We do not study the Bible individually but take the words of ministers who say "Thus said YAHWEH when YAHWEH has not spoken. They twist the Bible and we do not understand the word search because don't do it. EGW said she saw that word were changed in the Bible, I have asked many of you to look up the "god," instead many of you get mad at me. The word is a pagan word that derive from diurnal which means SATAN!!!!! You have to search and it tell you to see Zeus who the Greeks worship who was diurnal or SATAN

I return to the church but with a degree because of what I read and study as a youth. My mother was making changes but Satan took my second father away from her she had a stroke. He became an Adventist through his daughter that I gave Bible studies to. I met him and introduce him to my mother. She married him because she raise her five children a lone. Sadly, I introduce her to a man who was an Adventist but he was a liar and the marriage lasted one year. He cheated and she left him and the woman he had a child with him both left the church, also he cheated with another Adventist. My mother heard him talking with this woman and the marriage was over. I met my second father when we return to Georgia. They were married for thirty years and he became a SDA but his daughter did not want them to be married. She became a Bible worker Director out in California, but married a crooked doctor in our church who was not a SDA and he claim he was a preacher!! He was crooked, put in jail, she took him back and he left her. She then return home took her aging father from my mother for one year. I got him back but the stress was too much my mother had a stroke!!! Later dementia set in and I am keep her today. She is 91 and I burred him also took care of him as well. He died 2007, and I have been back in church for over thirty years, 1976 to be exact. There is a lot I have not shared with you. I shared this with you all to let you know SDA is my faith and not a denomination!!!!!!! I studied the Bible and understand what was translated or transliterated and what was not, it was CHANGED!

So I stand on the Bible and yes I have various version because I know the history of the Tyndale, KJV and the Vulgate Bible. You all need to study the history of the Bible, you would be shocked! So that's my story and that why I do not agree with everything we claim! We are not to add or to take from the Bible, read it and you find that it will tell you that!!!!!!!

Oh yeah also my mother, and her sister with their husband and me and a few others build our own church with our own money here in Greenville Georgia, the conference has never been happy they accepted us somewhat! We will survive and we are a part of the SDA sisters of churches! So go figure!!!!! Check me out, I have nothing to hide!!!!!!!!

Blessings!

JoeMo,

Since my study indicates that the first woe ended 22 February 1928.

And The second woe ended 14 February 2013.

you said: "The harvest of the earth and the pouring out of the bowls occurs during the 2nd and 3rd woes."

Can you clarify?

JoeMo,

Satan will not only personate Christ in a spectacular setting, he tries to do it daily in our lives.

I know that you are seeking and it is not easy to sort out all of the things that we encounter. And there is a devil who is actively impressing his slant on the things that we find. The Satanic perspective is so subtle that we don't always perceive that he is in the mix. He specializes in promoting misunderstanding, miscommunication, and mistrust. Then when our poor human minds get muddled, he tries his best to seal us in a state of confusion.

But at this time in human history, it is crucial that we cling to Jesus, plead for the Holy Spirit and His discernment, and keep studying the Bible. Private (idios as it is in the Greek) interpretations abound simply because Satan is a professional: he tailor makes the deception to fit the character of the students. Maybe he thinks that if we have found the solution that fits our perspective we will stop looking and fall short. Through prayer and Bible study, Jesus can remedy that notion.

[aside: Keep me in prayer if you will. I was getting ready to circulate my newest book (The Great Controversy: Earth's Gran Finale) on the Ides of March (15 March 2016) and a major publisher of Christian literature got hold of a facts page (Monday). They requested that I send the manuscript for them for review (which I have). So I am delaying the e-book release until they have had ample opportunity to read the book. Their acquisition department assures me that they have streamlined the process and I should be hearing back very soon. The Lord has promised to take charge of the work and to finish the work. And the events will be rapid ones. Who would have thought that a major publisher would have requested for me to send them the manuscript. I have always  been the one to try to find them and get somebody to give me a minute to make the pitch.] 

Christian regards,

I will definitely keep the matter in prayer.  If it becomes available, let me know.  Whether or not I agree with you now, I would like to consider your viewpoint further in more than the "soundbite" portions we can discuss in a post.
