One example of a satan counterfeit

We know that satan is a liar and the father of lies (John 8:44). He is a counterfeiter, never having created anything himself, but only copying and perverting all God has made. Satan promotes a counterfeit gospel. (2 Cor. 11:3,4), institutes counterfeit ministers (2 Cor. 11:13-15), presents counterfeit doctrine (2 Tim. 4:1, Gal 1:6-7), even has a counterfeit communion table (1 Cor. 10:19-21), has a counterfeit power of lying signs, wonders and miracles (2 Thess. 2:8-10), even promotes a counterfeit messiah (2 Thess. 2:3,4).

Here is another example from Deuteronomy 6:7-8 (NASB) of something satan later copies. God said to His people:
"You shall teach them diligently to your sons and shall talk of them when you sit in your house and when you walk by the way and when you lie down and when you rise up. You shall bind them as a sign on your hand and they shall be as frontals on your forehead."

Left, man with phylactery on head and tefillin on arm.

Satan is such a liar he copies God's instructions on how to remember Him. In so doing, perverts God's original intent to a corrupt one:

"All who dwell on the earth will worship him, everyone whose name has not been written from the foundation of the world in the book of life of the Lamb who has been slain. Rev 13:16 - And he causes all, the small and the great, and the rich and the poor, and the free men and the slaves, to be given a mark on their right hand or on their forehead," Rev 13:8

Our loving God gave us the choice to follow Him. I sincerely pray you have made that choice. The best way to see through counterfeit gospels, gods, doctrines, and commandments, are to know the real ones through and through. Read the bible each day, practice memorizing scriptures. Pray deeply in your walk with the Lord, not just quickie hello prayers or "I want" prayers seeking His hands. Seek His face. And you will know the REAL mark to take, not the fake one that leads to destruction in the Lake of Fire.

  2. Hi Kim,

    Thanks for the links. Sorry it took me a bit of time to read them and get back to you. They sure are interesting. I've heard some of the information before and in reading it again I still don't know what to make of it. I have two minds on it. First, it's hard to believe that such detailed study on symbolism has any real meaning or application. Also that men as long as 100 years ago were plotting this way. That's the secular me that fleshly wants to dismiss it.

    On the other hand, symbolism IS rampant in the bible, and even the blog entry I did that showed the symbols of the NWO and the EU are undeniable and important. Symbols in the bible tell us things that God wants us to know, and since satan is a counterfeiter his symbols also tell us things as well. That eye atop the pyramid on the dollar bothers me a lot. My personal opinion is that the Nephilim built the pyramids so that means it is from satan. Why is there a pyramid on the bill, of all the symbols to pick? And why is it hard for me to believe that plots take 100 years to unfold when satan has has his plots for 6000 years?

    For me, I think it comes down to wanting to believe the information or not. Because believing it would mean the spiritual battle is so much wider and deeper and stronger than I normally allow myself to think. SHUDDER! Ultimately, the links' information make a lot of sense, if I just let myself believe it.
