"Wormwood" / The False Prophet / Armageddon

DONE EDITING

"Therefore this is what the LORD Almighty says concerning the prophets: "I will make them eat bitter food and drink wormwood water, because from the prophets of Jerusalem ungodliness has spread throughout the land." (Jer.23:15)

"I am making this covenant with you so that there will not be among you a man or woman, or family or tribe, whose heart turns away today from the LORD our God, to go and serve the gods of those nations; that there will not be among you a root bearing poisonous fruit and wormwood." (Deut.29:18)

"See to it that no one falls short of the grace of God and that no wormwood root grows up to cause trouble and defile many." (Heb.12:15)

"The third angel sounded his trumpet, and a great star, blazing like a torch, fell from the sky on a third of the rivers and on the springs of water— the name of the star is Wormwood. A third of the waters turned bitter, and many people died from the waters that had become bitter." (Rev.8:10,11)

"But a prophet who presumes to speak in my name anything I have not commanded, or a prophet who speaks in the name of 
(on behalf of) other gods, is to be put to death. You may say to yourselves, 'How can we know when a message has not been spoken by the Lord?' If what a prophet proclaims in the name of the Lord does not take place or come true, that is a message the Lord has not spoken. That prophet has spoken presumptuously, so do not be alarmed." (Deut.18:20-22)

"not to become easily unsettled or alarmed by the teaching allegedly from us—whether by a prophecy or by word of mouth or by letter—asserting that the day of the Lord has already come. Don’t let anyone deceive you in any way, for that day will not come until the rebellion occurs and the man of lawlessness is revealed, the man doomed to destruction." (2Thess. 2:2,3)

"But the beast was captured, and with it the false prophet who had performed the signs on its behalf. With these signs he had deluded those who had received the mark of the beast and worshiped its image." (Rev.19:20)

"Then I saw a second beast, coming out of the earth. It had two horns like a lamb, but it spoke like a dragon.It exercised all the authority of the first beast on its behalf, and made the earth and its inhabitants worship the first beast, ...The second beast was given power to give breath to the image of the first beast, so that the image could speak and cause all who refused to worship the image to be killed." (Rev.13:11,12,15)

"Then I saw three impure spirits that looked like frogs; they came out of the mouth of the dragon, out of the mouth of the beast and out of the mouth of the false prophet. They are demonic spirits that perform signs, and they go out to the kings of the whole world, to gather them for the battle on the great day of God Almighty. Look, I come like a thief! Blessed is the one who stays awake and remains clothed, so as not to go naked and be shamefully exposed. Then they gathered the kings together to the place that in Hebrew is called Armageddon.” (Rev.16:13,14,15,16)

"The Spirit clearly says that in later times some will abandon the faith and follow deceiving spirits and things taught by demons." (1Tim. 4:1)

"In the presence of God and of Christ Jesus, who will judge the living and the dead, and in view of his appearing and his kingdom, I give you this charge: Preach the word; be prepared in season and out of season; correct, rebuke and encourage—with great patience and careful instruction. For the time will come when people will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear. They will turn their ears away from the truth and turn aside to myths. 5 But you, keep your head in all situations, endure hardship, do the work of an evangelist, discharge all the duties of your ministry.'" (2Tim. 4:1-5)

"When he opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of those who had been slain because of the word of God and the testimony they had maintained. Then each of them was given a white robe, and they were told to wait a little longer, until the full number of their fellow servants, their brothers and sisters, were killed just as they had been." (Rev.6:9,11)

"I saw heaven standing open and there before me was a white horse, whose rider is called Faithful and True. With justice he judges and wages war. The armies of heaven were following him, riding on white horses and dressed in fine linen, white and clean. Fine linen stands for the righteous acts of God’s holy people." (Rev.19:11,14,8 B)

"They will wage war against the Lamb, but the Lamb will triumph over them because he is Lord of lords and King of kings—and with him will be his called, chosen and faithful followers.

"Then I saw three impure spirits that looked like frogs; they came out of the mouth of the dragon, out of the mouth of the beast and out of the mouth of the false prophet. They are demonic spirits that perform signs, and they go out to the kings of the whole world, to gather them for the battle on the great day of God Almighty. Look, I come like a thief! Blessed is the one who stays awake and remains clothed, so as not to go naked and be shamefully exposed." (Rev.16:13-15)
"Be dressed and ready for service, and keep your lamps burning" (Luke 12:35)
(Luke 12:37; Matt.25:10; 13:12; Rev.19:9)

During this time of war, as we battle against demonic "spirits and signs/portents" by means of the power of Truth served us by Christ (2Cor. 6:7; 10:3,4,5); we must accept our death for truth (Mark 8:35; Rom.6:5), that we receive our white robe (Rev.6:9,11) and may battle alongside Christ (Rev.19:14) in the cause of Truth (Rev.19:11,15,19,20). This testimony will bring Satan's fall (Rev.12:10,11).
The warfare during Armageddon, requires that we expose the lies of Satan, the Wild Beast, and the False Prophet (Eph.5:11; Acts 26:18; Rev.16:13; 2:2;  2Cor. 11:13;  2Pet. 2:1,2,3;  2Tim. 3:13; Gal.1:9;  2Thess. 3:6;  2Tim. 3:5;  1Tim. 5:20; 1:5,6,7; 6:3;  2John 1:10; Matt.7:15,20; 3:7,8; Titus 1:9,13).
