I intend to vote for a man in my country that has great charisma. Lots of people love him. Many don't.
But he is known and loved, and respected world wide, by most countries. But, I keep having this feeling, what if this candidate is the actual Anti Christ. How will I know one way or the other. The adversary is the great deceiver. I would not want to go against Yah, and vote for someone who is working for the Adversary. It is mentioned in the Word of Yah, that the Anti Christ will fool the world.
Even Yashua was Tempted, and other prominent bible persons. So we are not safe from deception.

What can we do to guard ourselves from this possible act of deception? Politics in it's self, has lots of chances for deception to their constituents.

You ask good questions. I have had similar thoughts. Ultimately I think it comes down to we make the best choice we can with the information in front of us. If not him, then who? Call to be a good steward of the country into which Yah had me born. At this point, to not vote for this person would be definitely signing the death now to my country. I don't think we're going to know at this point who all is who. It is not for us to know yet. We do the best we can. We trust Yah for the outcome. I do know this person has been been protected multiple times from attempts on his life. We will see.

The main question should really be: why do we support systems not mentioned in Torah? I yet have to find the word 'democracy' anywhere in Scripture. Unless Torah is not the foundation of the constitution and followed to the letter, no government is worth anything.

I can understand your concern about a person being an anti-Christ, but they have been alive in all of history. Most of the secular and spiritual rulers in the Bible were anti-Christ. If you are concerned that the person might be the Beast then it would take some investigation on whether he actually fits the description we have of the Beast.

A shot in the ear, as example, is not a deadly wound.

I am always aware that my interpretation of Scripture is heavily influenced by the country and time that I live in. I would be seeing a #Chinese leader as the Beast if I lived in China with the #starvation and oppression going on there. If I lived in a #Muslim country then the religious leader would be my best bet.

The influence that the #USA has had financially over the past 50 years is not significant as many other countries had bigger influenced in the world than the USA has and reigned for significantly longer. My ancestors fled from the Netherlands because of the religious oppression 300 years ago.

So, could our interpretation of Scripture then be influenced by our point in time?

How many people since Yeshua's ascension have expected His imminent return? Just look at the 1800's alone... Just think what the believers thought during Hitler's reign. We are so disconnected from the larger picture that we only want to believe that Yeshua is returning in our life-time.

But, what if???

What if it doesn't happen and the next leader of a country is just another leader and as corrupt as the previous ones? Why do we expect any different from our future leaders than our past ones?

Then also, if we expect to be living in the end-times then we should pray that Father will lead, protect and guide us during this time, rather than praying to keep the #Beast from being unveiled. That has to take place for Yeshua's reign to come.

Good day, everyone!

We had no internet & no phone for over a day. Using my cell phone for social media is awkward. But I did pop on a little bit.

A lot of things've been happening, big things. How this is all going to turn out, I do not know. I'm not God & I'm not going to pretend I know. There're a lot of people out there staunchly saying it's going to turn out this way or that way. That's not me.

I tend to believe things're going to get worse. But how worse & for how long?

It might get really bad, just keep on going down & we're at the end.

Or it might get bad & then get better & we have a reprieve. I truly believe, but again I'm not going to claim I absolutely know, any reprieve we get's just a short time of opportunity for people to get into the kingdom before it's too late.

So please, make sure you're in His Kingdom. Turn to Yahweh. Turn to Messiah Yeshua/Jesus. You only have until your last breath.

With all the deception, only God can make things clear.

Shalom shalom

Only Father can guide and protect us. We should stand on the Num. 6:24-26 blessing that Father told Aaron to speak over the people.

My generation that came from the Baby-boomers has not gone through the previous world wars and has had an easy ride, so we automatically expect that all shelves will be fully stocked in the shops. This was however not the norm before the '70s. My mum reminded me a few weeks ago that they bought soap when there was soap on the shelves. If not, then they would come back another time to see if there was available. That was part of normal life before consumarism became the norm.

We should learn from that generation and prepare a bit more so that small "shocks" don't get us down. Father has given us His word as a warning, so we would be wise to have at least one backup bar of soap in the cupboard, so to speak.

I was a prepper for 15 years and have realized that there has to be a limit in how I manage the resources Father offers us. We now life frugally and just keep a normal pantry that all previous generations had before. Nothing more and nothing less. We don't have any richess at all saved up and even the house we rent is 90% furnished as we couldn't afford anything else.

BUT, and this is a big BUT. Father carried us through the Covid lockdowns without having an income and we actually see that period as a blessing in our lives. How? Not through our own planning, but through Father's mercy.

So why would I not believe that Father would carry us through whatever lies ahead?

We should look back at our own lives to recognize where Father did carry us and then have the faith that He will do the same going forward.

"At what instant I shall speak of a nation, and of a kingdom, to build and to plant it; and it do evil in mine eyes, that it hearken not to my voice, then I will repent of the good, wherewith I said I would do good for it."

A whip for the horse, a bridle for the donkey, and a rod for the back of fools.
Proverbs 26:3 ESV

Rather than rewarding fools to placate them, as in v1, make them feel the pain of their poor choices. Rewarding bad behavior only gets you more of it.

Stephen never spoke against Moses, the Torah, or God. If he had, his enemies would not have had to pay false witnesses to claim he did. Acts 6:11-15

When Stephen defended himself before the Jewish court, he didn't answer their questions directly. He took the opportunity to preach the truth to all who would listen.

From the steps of the Temple in ancient times, the priests would daily sing the tehillim (psalms). It is Calvarian custom to continue this tradition of at least reciting the Temple Psalms daily as a memorial.
