The New Testament tells us that Satan is a liar, the great Deceiver, who appears as an angel of light. It tells us that this great master of hoax and deception will lead many Christians into apostate Christianity to their own destruction. It describes him, in the book of Revelation, as the great deceiver of nations. We live in an age of great Satanic lie and deception, an age of great Christian apostasy, an age of delusion, illusion and mirage. Would you like an example of a nation being caught up in Satanic lie, a nation being duped and deceived by the forces of evil? The nation is America. The topic is homosexuality. According to the Bible homosexuality is wickedness of the grossest kind. The New Testament tells us that what God did to Sodom and Gomorrah stands as an example to all on the consequences of such great wickedness ( II Peter 2:6, Jude 1:7). Yet in America homosexuality is being condoned, sanctioned, and portrayed as simply another lifestyle equally as good as any other. Homosexuality is being presented as morally OK. And large numbers of Americans are buying this outlook on homosexuality. Large numbers of people who regard themselves as Christians, from many denominations, are buying into this outlook. So many are accepting this view that it appears that the majority of the members in some Christian denominations are of this view. Some denominations are even openly ordaining homosexuals as ministers and as bishops. How shocking! How far removed from Christianity! To portray any sin as gross as homosexuality as morally OK is shocking. All of this is the best example I can think of for illustrating Satanic lie and deception. It is the best example I know of for showing the power of Satan for mass deception and delusion and his power for deceiving nations. And for Christian apostasy on a large scale, I can think of no better example. Lev 18:22,24 You shall not lie with a male as with a woman. It is an abomination. Do not defile yourselves with any of these things; for by all these the nations are defiled, which I am casting out before you. Lev 20:13 If a man lies with a male as he lies with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination. They shall surely be put to death. Their blood shall be upon them. Rom 1:26-28 For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature: And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompense of their error which was meet. And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient; 1 Cor 6:9-10 Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived. Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor homosexuals, nor sodomites, {10} nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners will inherit the kingdom of God.
