When Moses faced off with Pharaoh we discover that Pharaoh 'hardened his heart'. But we are also informed that God 'hardened' pharaoh's heart(Exodus 4:21). How are we as believers to understand this in light of the fact that God tempts no man according to James 1:13? Answer: it wasn't a 'temptation'. Pharaoh, being a hardened sinner, being exposed to the light of God's truth, yet did not like it, was already pre-disposed to reject what the Lord revealed to Him. To answer how God 'hardened' his heart: the same sun that melts the wax hardens the clay. The teaching being
that the same light that God uses to convict sinners to repent will turn the unyielding one even harder than before.
Pharaoh set himself up for the deception and judgment that was to come.
In much the same manner, the human race is setting itself up for deception and a snare by Satan in these last days. There is a mental preparation for Antichrist to come and sinners, being pre-disposed to reject God to begin with, are being mentally prepared to accept the son of the devil when he comes. Let me show you several examples of that mental preparation in the movies (among others I will show later):
What you are seeing above is just one of about 40 pentacles that were flashed on the screen during the movie, 'Lawnmower Man'. What the general public did not know was that most of the symbols that were seen in that movie were black magick symbols from a work by McGregor Mathers called 'The Keys of Solomon the King' (not Solomon of the Bible).
This pentacle is of Mercury and its purpose is to call forth evil spirits.
Here is another one:
This is the pentacle for Saturn. The spell cast by this symbol says, "The person against whom thou shalt pronounce it shall be obsessed by Demons." Around the edge of the circle, written in Hebrew are the words, "Let Satan stand at his right hand." The curse works for those who watched the movie for entertainment, liked it, enjoyed it, and mentally received it into their minds. These spells harden human hearts to be more accepting of occult things, bring about obsessions/compulsions of various kinds, and to be ready for Antichrist.
It isn't too hard to see the anti-christian element in the movie:
There are satanic/demonic symbols and mind effecting devices in many movies:
Spock with his Vulcan hand sign ('live long & prosper'). But what it really means is revealed in card #15 of the A.E. Waite tarot card system:
This is explained in a book that discusses the symbolism of tarot:
This is what it tells us on page 48:
So the Spock Vulcan hand sign is really a symbol for black magick. There are many more satanic/demonic influences in Star Trek that I will deal with later. But now lets move on to The Lord of the Rings by Tolkein:
The door of Moria:
What the viewers did not know about this is that the door of Moria is almost identical to the symbol of the Royal Arch degree of Freemasonry:
Notice the two pillars, arch, seven stars, and crown under each arch. This symbol has a deep significance but like as in the movie, the initiate into the Royal Arch degree in Freemasonry must say the password ('mellon' = 'friend' in Lord of the Rings) in order to pass through the door/arch in order to progress to the next level of things. But the symbols are deeply metaphysical and perhaps not appropriate for a discussion here.
Also in Lord of the Rings: the pentacle of the moon;
This is not a very good view of the extended pointing finger and arm of the pentacle. The old Hildebrandt Bro. illustrated book of Lord of the Rings has a much better picture that reveals an arm/finger that is exactly like the moon pentacle below:
Did the movie producers/directors know what they were doing when they inserted all of those occult symbols in their movies? Perhaps/perhaps not. It matters not really, for the devil can use people without their knowledge to accomplish his tasks.
All of this reveals the subtle attempts of Satan (the most subtle beast of the field, Genesis 3:1) to prepare modern minds to accept his Antichrist. It appears to the discerning Christian that it is working. It helps us to understand better that hour of which the Bible says is coming that the Wicked one will decieve the whole world and why it that is said that ' And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie'. Like Pharaoh of old whose heart and mind was pre-disposed to reject the light that God gave him, modern sinners will be pre-disposed to believe lies even when they are obvious lies and deception.

Tell that to the hundreds of people I've counseled and many others I have won to Christ.
I believe Christ was humble about His work.

Why the personal attack when I am only trying to reveal the truth?
Do you have some comment about the topic post? If not, then I bid you farewell.
Best wishes.
It is not a personal attack, but a reminder. Obviously you are passionate about your work, some are not. That does not mean they do less than you.

Come quickly, Lord Jesus!

If you will concentrate on being victorious over the evil inside you, you will then not have to worry about any evil outside of you because no power in heaven or on earth can separate you from the love of Jesus.

The movie ‘National Treasure’ brought out a few things about the secret history of our country as embodied in Freemasonry. What was disturbing to me is that it presented the ‘secrets’ as a good thing and the Freemasons as honorable. They are not.
Freemasonry has its historical roots in the pagan religions of ancient time and it is directly tied to the occult. Let me reveal that here.
Most people are familiar with the ‘all seeing eye’ on the dollor bill and reems of information about it is posted on the Internet revealing its Freemason connection. But that connection goes far deeper than Freemasonry. The 'all seeing eye' has always been a symbol of evil as far as the occult world is concerned. Of course they don't define it as 'evil', but it nonetheless has the same hidden connotations to it as does the lodge of Freemasonry and its so-called 'secrets'.
But how am I justified in claiming that Freemasonry is an occult practice and therefore evil? Here’s how:
This Bantam book revealed something in its contents that stunned me when I saw it. Behold the initiation of a witch!
There is a rope (cable tow) around the neck, a blindfold (hoodwink) over the eyes, and a sharp pointed sword pressed to the naked breast. This is almost identical to the initiation of a first degree Freemason as seen below:
There has always been a subtle, not so obvious connection between Freemasonry and witchcraft, all of which the Freemasons vehemently deny. But shout as they might, the connections are there and what they are practicing is, according to expert Martin L. Wagner in "Freemasonry, an Interpretation", a revived form of ancient Baal worship as revealed in the Old Testament. But...Baal worship is identified as the ancient form of withcract common to Israel during that age! (II Kings 9:22).
For the discerning Christian the connection is obvious:
This is the symbol of the female branch of Freemasonry compared with the satanic symbol of the goat of Baphomet.
So why are the Freemasons so excited about the 'National Treasure' series? Because they got quite a boost by those movies. They have lost greatly in membership over the years and they have taken it on the chin for several decades by researchers (who like myself) have exposed their many evils and awful influence on this country and the movie did a whitewash on them and presented them in a good light.
But God's Word teaches against the evils and the oaths of both witchcraft and Freemasonry. Jesus made it plain that He had done nothing in secret (John 18:20) and that 'For it is a shame even to speak of those things which are done of them in secret.' Ephesian 5:12.
The people involved in the occult/witchcraft and/or Freemasonry are helping to mentally prepare people in our society for the coming of Antichrist. Many of them undoubtedly do not know this and deny it but the Bible affirms that such a mental preparation is/will be happening for the time when the counterfeit 'savior' of the world will arise.
Christians are commanded by our Lord to not be 'ignorant of his(Satans) devices' and that we are to be highly aware of conditions in our world in order to be prepared for Jesus at His 2nd coming. May be be so!
Even so, come quickly, Lord Jesus!
