PASTOR GREG LAURIE: THE ANTICHRIST, ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE, AND LIVING IN A WORLD OF CHEAP IMITATIONS

PASTOR GREG LAURIE: THE ANTICHRIST,
ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE, AND LIVING
IN A WORLD OF CHEAP IMITATIONS
1 | P a g e

In this episode, Pastor Greg Laurie tackles one of the most provocative
questions in Bible prophecy: IS THE ANTICHRIST ALIVE TODAY? Drawing
from Scripture and current events observations, he explores how
deception in the last days may not come in the form of obvious evil, but
rather through things that appear good—even helpful.
From fake tulips to fake lives on social media, PASTOR GREG ILLUSTRATES
HOW OUR WORLD IS SATURATED WITH IMITATIONS AND HOW THIS
CULTURE OF COUNTERFEIT CAN PREPARE THE WAY FOR THE ULTIMATE
DECEIVER. HE ALSO UNPACKS THE BIBLICAL PROFILE OF THE
ANTICHRIST, NOT AS A CARTOONISH VILLAIN, BUT AS A CHARISMATIC,
PEACE-PROMOTING FIGURE WHO WILL MISLEAD MANY.
Many (7) PEOPLE BELIEVE THE ANTICHRIST IS ALIVE TODAY. (7) A LOT OF
PEOPLE THINK HE IS. Could ANTICHRIST INTELLIGENCE (A.I) actually be
part of a future deception? If the Antichrist is alive today, Could
ANTICHRIST INTELLIGENCE (A.I) be part of end-times deception?
The greatest threat isn't something outright evil, but something that
actually looks well, kind of good? These aren't questions for some far-off
time. These are questions for right now.
So, I was at the market not too long ago and I saw the most beautiful tulip
for sale in a flower shop. I thought my wife Kathy might really like this.
So, I bought it for her and I have to say it was the danger of imitations:
From fake tulips to the iPhone’s impact little bit on the expensive side,
but I thought this is the most beautiful tulip.
In fact, it's so beautiful. It's almost like it's fake. Well, we got it home. We
tried to clip off the bottom to put it into a vase with some water and it
turns out it was fake. You know, the world is full of fake things.

As an example, take the first iPhone. I mean, it was such a significant
innovation that some people actually called it the Jesus phone. I
remember I was at an Apple convention in San Francisco and they had
this really thick plexiglass display case and inside of it was this mysterious
Jesus phone. This iPhone slowly turning. People were standing around it.
So, I got up kind of close to take a picture and the security guard told me
to stand back. Security guard for the iPhone. But Steve Jobs had
effectively created something that had not existed before. It was an
absolute original.

Apple is officially coming to Diriyah Square
The tech giant announced its first-ever physical Apple Store in Saudi
Arabia, opening in 2026, following the launch of their fully localized
online store earlier this year. This new flagship is expected to feature
Apple’s signature architecture, immersive retail experience, and
exclusive in-store services — all in the heart of Riyadh’s most anticipated
cultural district. Are you excited for Apple’s first store in the Kingdom?

But seriously though, when the iPhone came out, it changed the game.
2008, I remember it well. The popular phones at the time were the
Blackberry and the Motorola flip phone. In fact, the Blackberry was so
popular, some people even called it the Crackberry. And that little flip
phone, it actually just made phone calls. That's all they did. Pretty soon,
every phone on the market looked just like the iPhone. Then came apps.
Then came social media and so much of it is fake.
Fake lives, fake Social media, stress, and the rise of depression smiles,
fake filters. Then came the rise in depression that I think is directly
connected to phones and social media. Uh the rise in suicide especially
among young people. Something called social contagions that didn't
even exist maybe five years ago that now are sweeping the youth culture.
In fact, recent research has shown that the United States is the most
stressed nation on the planet.
This onslaught of technology has only added to that. In fact, this
generation is the most stressed out in history. I read recently that college
students have the anxiety level of a psychiatric patient from World War
II. Honestly, we were better off with flip phones. It should have left that
iPhone in the plexiglass case. I think we've sort of opened Pandora's box.
As an example, there's a well-known entertainer that posts regular
videos that are a bit on the bizarre side of herself dancing in front of her
phone. Someone commented after seeing the video, quote, "Get this girl
a landline and a Bible." You know, speaking of fake things, there's a lot of
fake things that people believe about God. As an example, some people
would say, "All roads lead to God." No matter what road you take, it will
get you to God. Well, that's not true.
15 | P a g e

16 | P a g e

Actually, debunking false (7) BELIEFS ABOUT GOD AND RELIGION JESUS
SAID, "I AM THE WAY, THE (7) TRUTH, AND THE LIFE, AND NO MAN (7)
COMES TO THE FATHER BUT BY ME." And the Bible also says, "THERE'S
ONE GOD, AND (7) THERE'S ONE MEDIATOR BETWEEN GOD AND MAN,
AND IT'S CHRIST JESUS."
But other fake things people will say will go along the lines of, "All
religions (5) BASICALLY TEACH THE SAME THING." By the way, if someone
says that to you, that's another way of them saying, "I have no (5) IDEA
WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT." The fact is, all (5) THE RELIGIONS OF THE
WORLD do (5) NOT TEACH THE SAME THING. (5) THEY TEACH VERY
DIFFERENT THINGS. In fact, if you were to sum everything up, you could
take all of the religions of the world and sum them up in one word. Do.
Do this and (5) MAYBE YOU'LL GET TO HEAVEN.
Do that and (5) MAYBE YOU'LL FIND INNER PEACE.
Do this other thing (5) AND MAYBE YOU'LL REACH NIRVANA.
It's all about doing.
But if you were (7) TO SUM UP CHRISTIANITY IN ONE WORD, it would be
done. In other (7) WORDS, GOD HAS DONE IT FOR YOU. CHRIST
PURCHASED YOUR SALVATION (7) ON THE CROSS WHERE HE DIED FOR
(7) YOU AND ROSE AGAIN FROM THE DEAD.
Here's another fake (5) THING PEOPLE BELIEVE ABOUT GOD. They'll say
things like, "God (5) HELPS THOSE WHO HELP THEMSELVES." That that's
not true. It's not in the (7) BIBLE AND IT'S NOT TRUE AT ALL. Actually, a
(7) BETTER WAY OF SAYING IT WOULD BE (7) GOD HELPS THOSE WHO
CAN'T HELP THEMSELVES. GOD HELPS THOSE WHO (7) WILL REACH OUT
TO GOD FOR HELP. So, with all of this (5) FAKE NEWS AND FAKE
17 | P a g e

INFORMATION, I (7) THINK IT'S REALLY IMPORTANT THAT AS
CHRISTIANS, we (7) ARE REMINDED OF WHAT IS ACTUALLY TRUE.

The GREAT (7) TRIBULATION PERIOD WILL BEGIN IMMEDIATELY 30 DAYS
AFTER (5) THE FORMAL EMERGENCE OF ANTICHRIST (5) AT HIS
ABOMINATION OF DESOLATION, and it will (7) END WITH THE RETURN
OF JESUS CHRIST. So, a (5) MAN IS COMING, THE ANTICHRIST, who will
(5) PRETEND TO BE THE MESSIAH, but (5) HE'LL TURN OUT TO BE (5) THE
SON OF THE DEVIL.
Well, you've (5) PROBABLY HEARD OF THE ANTICHRIST before. Maybe
you imagine a sinister figure dressed head to toe in black robes, glowing
red eyes, and 666 uh across his forehead as he quotes AC/DC lyrics or
Iron Maiden lyrics. And of course, you have the Darth Vader theme
playing in the background, but that's not who he's going to be. The real
Antichrist is not going to look like a villain from a Marvel movie. (5) HE'S
GOING TO BE SOMEONE (5) WHO LOOKS LIKE A SAVIOR.

One of the things THE ANTICHRIST (5) WILL DO IS HE WILL (5) REBUILD
THE TEMPLE IN JERUSALEM. This (5) WILL BE THE THIRD TEMPLE. And
many will (5) FEEL HE'S THE VERY MESSIAH because of it. In fact, years
ago, I was in Israel and I was talking with an Israeli tour guide and he said,
"We (5) BELIEVE WHEN OUR MESSIAH COMES, HE'S going to (5) BRING
PEACE TO THE REGION and he's (5) GOING TO REBUILD OUR TEMPLE." I
said, "Uh, excuse me. (5) YOU JUST DESCRIBED THE ANTICHRIST,
because that's what he's going to do." His response was, "THE
ANTICHRIST or not, (5) HE WILL BE OUR MESSIAH."
40 | P a g e

41 | P a g e

42 | P a g e

43 | P a g e

44 | P a g e

You can see how people could be misled. THE ANTICHRIST is (5)
ENERGIZED BY THE DEVIL HIMSELF. The Bible even says THE DRAGON,
which is defined later in Revelation as (5) BEING A PICTURE OF SATAN,
(5) WILL GIVE HIM HIS AUTHORITY.
45 | P a g e

As I already said, he'll come off as A UNIFIER, A DIPLOMAT, MAYBE EVEN
A GENIUS, BUT HE'S A COUNTERFEIT. Consider this. The prefix anti
doesn't just mean against, though it includes that. It also means instead
of. So, think of ANTICHRIST as an INSTEAD OF CHRIST CHARACTER. Jesus
said in Matthew 24 in (5) THE LAST DAYS MANY WILL (5) COME SAYING
“I AM CHRIST”, and will deceive many.

One other thing it's really feudal to look for ANTICHRIST. I've heard
people come up with the crazy ideas. Oh, Donald Trump is ANTICHRIST.
Some would say others would say the Pope is THE ANTICHRIST. Or, they'll
try to identify (5) SOME WORLD FIGURE AS ANTICHRIST, THE
ANTICHRIST is (7) NOT REVEALED, UNTIL THE TRIBULATION PERIOD
BEGINS.

Bible says, "GOD HAS (7) NOT APPOINTED US TO WRATH AS
CHRISTIANS, BUT TO (7) ATTAIN SALVATION THROUGH OUR LORD JESUS
CHRIST." Now, the Bible says, "HE WHO NOW (7) RESTRAINS WILL
CONTINUE TO DO SO UNTIL (7) HE IS TAKEN OUT OF THE WAY, (5) AND
THEN THAT WICKED ONE (7) WILL BE REVEALED WHOM THE LORD WILL
(7) DESTROY WITH THE BRIGHTNESS OF HIS COMING." So, (7) THE BIBLE
IS TEACHING THAT THERE IS (7) A RESTRAINING FORCE IN THE WORLD
TODAY. And that RESTRAINING FORCE IS (7) THE HOLY SPIRIT WORKING
THROUGH THE CHURCH.
77 | P a g e

78 | P a g e

Because it's Christians that speak out against what is wrong. It's
Christians that speak up for what is true. It's Christians that start relief
organizations. It's Christians that build hospitals. It's Christians that care
for the people who are out there in the culture and are hurting. And if
we were suddenly taken from this planet, or at least if a lot of us were,
you could see how it would be a game changer.
So, I bring this up because if you're saying, I think this person or (5) THAT
PERSON IS THE ANTICHRIST. The Bible does not tell us (5) TO BE
LOOKING FOR ANTICHRIST. It tells (7) US TO BE LOOKING FOR JESUS
CHRIST.
79 | P a g e

80 | P a g e

81 | P a g e

In fact, the Bible (7) SAYS HE WILL APPEAR A SECOND TIME (7) FOR
THOSE WHO ARE LOOKING FOR HIM. So don't (7) LOOK FOR
ANTICHRIST, LOOK FOR JESUS CHRIST.
82 | P a g e

But listen to this. Not only will an antichrist figure emerge on the scene,
but according to First John, (5) THERE'S GOING TO BE (a)NTICHRISTS,
plural, more than one. Let's talk about that. Remember again, the prefix
anti doesn't just mean against. It means instead of in 1 John 21:18 we
read these words. Dear children, this is the last hour. So clearly (5) JOHN
IS ADDRESSING END (A)NTICHRISTS (plural): Substituting Jesus (5) WITH
OTHER BELIEFS, TIMES, EVENTS. It's the last hour and as you have heard
(5) THAT THE (A)NTICHRIST IS COMING. We've already talked about (5)
HIM THAT COMING WORLD LEADER. And now (5) MANY (a)NTICHRISTS
(small ‘a’) PLURAL HAVE COME. This is how (7) WE KNOW IT IS THE LAST
HOUR.
83 | P a g e

So, what is John talking about? What is this antichrist or instead of Christ
behavior that he's addressing? Basically, it's putting something in the
place of Jesus Christ. (5) ANTICHRIST BEHAVIOR IS REPLACING JESUS
Christ (5) WITH SOMEONE OR SOMETHING ELSE. it's a person who
maybe will talk about God but wants (5) NOTHING TO DO WITH JESUS.
It's religion without redemption. I think a real problem that's happening
right now in the church is people are engaging in what they call
deconstructing. And to deconstruct is when someone says, "Well, I have
these questions and I'm not sure if I believe these things. I've been raised
to believe, so I'm (5) GOING TO DECONSTRUCT MY FAITH." And (5) THEN
THEY'RE GOING TO PUT (5) SOMETHING ELSE IN ITS PLACE. Not because
they necessarily have sincere questions, (5) BUT BECAUSE THEY NEVER
REALLY (5) KNEW JESUS TO BEGIN WITH. It's not atheism that's
dangerous. It's substitution. It's putting something else (5) IN THE PLACE
84 | P a g e

OF JESUS. That is ANTICHRIST (5) OR INSTEAD OF CHRIST BEHAVIOR. So,
John basically says, and I'm loosely paraphrasing, they went out from us,
but they did not return to us, which shows they were never really of us
before.
85 | P a g e

86 | P a g e

87 | P a g e

88 | P a g e

That raises the question, what if someone makes a profession of faith and
one day walks away from the church and then ultimately, they walk away
from their faith? Have they lost their salvation? My question would be,
did they have salvation to begin with? Listen, it's possible for a Christian
to walk away from their faith for a time. It's possible for a Christian to fall
into overt sin.
The Bible is filled with many stories of godly men and women who failed
big time. You think of King David with Basheba and later murdering her
husband Uriah. You think of Simon Peter and his denial of Jesus Christ.
So, it happens. But when you're a true Christian, you'll always come back
home. But if you never come back home, and by that, I mean return to
the church, return to your faith, then you were never really a Christian to
begin with.
Example, the prodigal son. Prodigal son messed up big time. And this is a
story Jesus told us to show us what God is like. A father had two sons,
says our Lord. A and one said, "Dad, lose paraphrase, give me my portion
of the inheritance that's coming to me." And then that kid went out and
blew all of his money and crazy living consorting with prostitutes and just
made a mess of his life. And one day, the boy came to his senses and he
said, "You know what? I had it better when I was living at home with dad.
I'm going to go home and say, "Father, I'm no longer worthy to be called
your son. Make me a hired servant."
And then Jesus tells the story again to show us what God is like. When
the boy was a great way off, the father saw him and ran to him and threw
his arms around him and kissed him and welcomed him back and said,
"This my son who was dead is alive again. He who was lost is found." So,
he was always a son, but he was a prodigal son. If you're a real child of
89 | P a g e

God, you'll always come back. But if you say, "Well, I've deconstructed."
Well, maybe you never constructed to start with. It's not the issue of
losing one's salvation. It's the issue of maybe never having salvation to
begin with. IT'S ANTICHRIST (5) OR INSTEAD OF CHRIST BEHAVIOR.
90 | P a g e

91 | P a g e

Okay, let's talk about something now that seems futuristic, but actually it
ANTICHRIST INTELLIGENCE (A.I). potential role in end-times deception
isn't anymore. I'm talking about ANTICHRIST INTELLIGENCE (A.I). I
recently watched a Fox News segment where the host discussed how
ANTICHRIST INTELLIGENCE (A.I.) is quickly advancing to the point where
it can replicate human emotions, generate your friend’s voices. It even
actS as sort of a therapist or counselor.
ELON MUSK put it this way. He said that ANTICHRIST INTELLIGENCE (A.I).
could end (5) UP BECOMING AN IMMORTAL DICTATOR from which we
would never escape. Now, am I suggesting that ANTICHRIST
INTELLIGENCE (A.I). is THE ANTICHRIST?
No. But could it be a part of the end time scenario? I think it's very
possible. As a matter of fact, the Bible tells us THAT ANTICHRIST (5) IS
GOING TO ERECT AN (7) IMAGE OF HIMSELF IN THE REBUILT TEMPLE.
Remember, I said that a few moments ago. And he's (7) GOING TO (5)
COMMAND PEOPLE TO WORSHIP IT. And it's (5) GOING TO SOMEHOW
BE ANIMATED. That sounded so futuristic a long time ago.

Now with the advances in ROBOT TECHNOLOGY, ANTICHRIST
INTELLIGENCE (A.I.) TECHNOLOGY, and more, it doesn't seem far-fetched
at all. AI has become a part of our life. In fact, MARK ZUCKERBERG
recently said that ANTICHRIST INTELLIGENCE (A.I.) might be better than
actually having real friends. He says it's because it could learn your
preferences and be more in tune with your needs. An algorithm can love
you, know you, and guide you.
97 | P a g e

98 | P a g e

99 | P a g e

Well, okay. So now I'm not supposed to hang out with people. I'm
supposed to have cappuccino with my Roomba or something. This is
getting ridiculous. This is antichrist. You go, what do you mean by that?
This is instead of Christ. (5) I'M LOOKING FOR A SUBSTITUTE (5) FOR
GOD IN MY LIFE. Instead of looking to (7) THE BIBLE, GOD'S WORD THAT
WILL GIVE (7) ME WISDOM AND TELL ME GOD'S OPINION, I'm looking
ANTICHRIST INTELLIGENCE (A.I.) to (5) GIVE ME GUIDANCE AND
WISDOM and even companionship.
This is something we need to be very careful of. Now, I think AI can be a
great tool. I even use it a bit myself. (5)BUT DON'T LET IT TAKE (7) THE
PLACE OF GOD IN YOUR LIFE. If we (5) START LOOKING TO MACHINES
TO (5) TELL US WHAT IS RIGHT and (5) WRONG AND GOOD AND EVIL,
(5) WE'VE ALREADY STEPPED INTO DECEPTION. That's the danger (5) OF
THE SPIRIT OF ANTICHRIST (5) OR INSTEAD OF CHRIST BEHAVIOR. It
doesn't (5) LOOK DEMONIC. IT LOOKS CONVENIENT. It looks helpful. It
looks smart.
But God (7) SAYS, "HAVE NO OTHER GODS BEFORE ME." Listen to this.
Everything you need is (7) FOUND IN A RELATIONSHIP WITH JESUS
CHRIST. Everything (7) YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT GOD IS (7) FOUND
IN THE PAGES OF THE BIBLE. (7) THE BIBLE IS THE USERS'S MANUAL OF
(7) LIFE YOU'VE BEEN LOOKING FOR IN LIFE. (7) I STRONGLY URGE YOU
TO OPEN IT (7) UP AND LET GOD SPEAK TO YOU. It's the ultimate
ABIDING IN CHRIST:
The (7) SOLUTION TO DECEPTION THING YOU'RE LOOKING FOR. All right.
So, what's the alternative to (5) ALL OF THIS FAKE STUFF, this ANTICHRIST
INTELLIGENCE (A.I.) (5) AND OTHER SUBSTITUTES FOR GOD? It's a
100 | P a g e

RELATIONSHIP WITH CHRIST. In fact, in First John, we are told (7) THAT
WE NEED TO ABIDE IN HIM. John says, "If we (7) ABIDE IN HIM, WE WILL
NOT SIN." Now, of course, we're (5) ALL GOING TO SIN IN (5) SOME WAY,
SHAPE, OR FORM. In fact, we're even told in 1 John 18, (5) IF WE SAY WE
HAVE (5) NO SIN, WE DECEIVE OURSELVES (7) AND THE TRUTH IS NOT
IN US. But then John tells us later, "ABIDE (7) IN CHRIST AND YOU WILL
NOT SIN." But if you understand what he's saying in the original language,
it would go as follows. If you ABIDE (7) IN CHRIST, YOU WILL NOT
HABITUALLY SIN.
You (7) WILL SIN, BUT YOU WON'T PRACTICE SIN. You will sin, (7) BUT
YOU WON'T BE COMFORTABLE IN SIN. What does it mean to ABIDE? It
means (7) TO SINK YOUR ROOTS DEEPLY INTO JESUS. Jesus said, "ABIDE
IN (7) ME AND I WILL ABIDE IN YOU." It's sort of like planting a tree,
right? And you get your roots deep into the soil. Let's say, as an example,
you planted a peach tree in your front yard and uh it was doing well and
you'd watered it and you were looking at it, you thought, you know what,
it would have been better if I put this in my backyard. So, you dig it up,
you carry it to your backyard, dig a hole, plant the tree there. But then
maybe you're in your backyard and you look at the tree and you think,
you know what, I think I should have left it in the front yard.
So, you dig it up again and replant it in your front yard, your tree is going
to die. You can't be digging up a tree and planting it and replanting it and
planting it again. What happens to people, is they don't get their roots
deeply into Jesus. How do you do that? Here's an example. Every (7) DAY
YOU JUST START WITH THE BIBLE. Open up the (7) BIBLE AND LET GOD
SPEAK TO YOU. You (7) PRAY. YOU TALK TO GOD ABOUT THINGS. (7) AND
YOU'RE ROOTED IN A CHRISTIAN COMMUNITY.
101 | P a g e

By that I mean you're rooted in a church. I think the problem that some
Christians have is they're going to a church for maybe a long period of
time. They've built relationships up there. They have a great community
there, a lot of friends there and then something bothers them and they
say we're leaving this church and they go to another church and they're
there for a time and then something bothers them there and now they're
leaving and going to even another church.
They're sort of planting, uprooting, planting, uprooting, and then one day
you hear, "Well, (5) THEY'RE NOT GOING TO CHURCH at all anymore."
You know, that's not good. You (7) NEED TO REMAIN ROOTED IN A
COMMUNITY. Reminds me of a story I heard about a guy who was
stranded on a desert island and uh they finally rescued him and they
noticed he had built three buildings, three little huts. And so, they said to
him, "So what are these buildings?" He said, "Well, the first hut is my
house. That's where I live." "Oh, okay. What's the second hut?" Well,
that's my church. That's where I go to church. Okay. What about the third
guy? He said, "That's a church I used to go to." See, that's how some
people are. They're just always uprooting themselves. Get planted in a
community. Listen (7) TO THIS AMAZING PROMISE JESUS GIVES US. He
says, "If you abide in me and my words abide in you, you shall ask what
you will and it shall be done unto you."
If you were to translate that from a Greek translation, it would go as
follows. Christ speaking. If you maintain a living communion with me and
my words are at home in you, you shall ask at once for yourself whatever
your heart desires and it's yours. That's a radical promise. Ask at once
whatever your heart desires and it's yours. But don't miss the condition.
If you maintain a living communion with me and my words are at home
in you.
102 | P a g e

Listen, when you're studying the Bible, your desires are going to change.
Your thoughts are going to change. You're going to start thinking
biblically. And then when you go to God in prayer, you're not going to
pray for self-indulgent things. You're going to pray more in (7) AN
ALIGNMENT WITH THE WILL OF GOD.
So, the answer is ABIDING IN CHRIST. The answer is RELATIONSHIP WITH
CHRIST, not (5) IN CHEAP SUBSTITUTES OR ANTICHRIST (5) OR INSTEAD
OF CHRIST FIGURES, activities or anything else you might find yourself
doing. YOU WERE CREATED TO KNOW GOD. You (7) ARE CREATED FOR A
RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD. You know, it's so interesting. They do all these
studies these days on the topic of happiness and it seems like the culture
is coming around to what the Bible has said all along. I read an article in
the Atlantic Monthly about the pursuit of happiness recently and (7)
THEY SAID THEY HAVE FOUND THAT IF (7) YOU WANT TO BE A HAPPY
PERSON, (7) YOU NEED TO BE A FORGIVING PERSON.
We have found that if you want to be a happy person, you have to be in
a community of people and have relationships. We (7) HAVE FOUND
THAT IF YOU WANT TO (7) BE A HAPPY PERSON, YOU MUST ENGAGE (7)
IN SERVING OTHERS AND HELPING OTHER PEOPLE. Oh, where have I
heard all of that before? That's all in the Bible. If we would just get back
(7) TO GOD'S ORIGINAL PLAN, WE WOULD FIND (7) THE HAPPINESS
WE'RE LOOKING FOR IN LIFE. You'll (7) FIND THE FULFILLMENT YOU
WANT IN LIFE, (7) NOT FROM CHASING AFTER IT, BUT FROM (7) WELL,
CHASING AFTER GOD AND KNOWING GOD. So, here's the solution.
ABIDE IN CHRIST. Develop your RELATIONSHIP WITH CHRIST. And (5)
DON'T SETTLE FOR CHEAP SUBSTITUTES. All right. So, let's wrap it up
with a couple of questions. Here's the first”

OVERCOMING FEAR OF CHRIST’S RETURN
one. I'm a believer of God and I love him so much, but one thing that I'm
really questioning is when I hear that God is coming back, I get scared. I
have fear in my heart and I don't know what to do about that. Please tell
me how I can get rid of the fear that God is coming back and be happy
about it.
That's a very good question. All right. Number one, don't be afraid. And
Jesus put it this way in John 14. Let not your hearts be troubled, neither
let them be afraid. So, Jesus literally is addressing your issue. Don't be
afraid. When we study Bible prophecy, which is the teaching of the Bible
and end times events, sometimes called the study of Eschatology, it
should not scare us. It should prepare us. And I would also add, it should
excite us. It's something to look forward to. The Bible calls the return of
Christ a blessed hope. And the word blessed can be used interchangeably
with the word happy. So, we could call it a happy hope. So, when you
think about Jesus coming back, you should be happy.
Let's illustrate it. Let's say, you know, when you're a little kid, you did
something wrong and your mother said, "Just wait until your father gets
home." So, your kind of dreaded dad coming home because you knew
you were in trouble. But let's say you were a good boy, a good girl, and
everything was great. And mom said, "Daddy's home." You ran to greet
your father. So, if you're right with God as you would be right with your
earthly father, you look forward to him coming. But if you're not right
with God, then you might dread his coming.
So, I would say make sure that you're ready to meet the Lord. Make sure
you're walking right with him. It doesn't mean you live perfectly. It
doesn't mean you don't make mistakes. We all sin. We all fall short. But

it means we're looking forward to his return. In fact, in first John, it says,
"He that has this hope, that (7) IS THE HOPE OF THE LORD'S RETURN,
(7) PURIFIES HIMSELF EVEN AS HE IS PURE."
The word purify means to clean oneself. Right? And so, the idea is that I
want to keep my life morally pure, spiritually right. So, when Jesus comes,
I will not be ashamed at his coming. So, let me just wrap it up and say, if
you've put your faith in Jesus Christ, you don't have to be afraid when
you hear that Christ is coming back. You can say like the Apostle John said
in the book of Revelation, "EVEN SO, COME LORD JESUS." It's a happy
hope.
And here's one more question and we'll wrap up with this one. Someone
asks, "What if they feel far from God or have walked away? Can I come
back? Absolutely you can. And God will welcome you back. One of my
favorite passages is when the Lord tells us, "SEEK (7) THE LORD WHILE
HE MAY BE FOUND. (7) CALL UPON HIM WHILE HE IS NEAR.”
Can you return to God? The prodigal son’s story his way and the
unrighteous man his thoughts and let him return to our God." And then
it goes on to say, "Who will pardon abundantly?" Yes, if you return to
God, God will pardon you. Back to the story of the prodigal son. How did
the father react when the son came home? He ran to his son. You know,
there are different ideas as to why the father may have done that. You
see, that boy had denigrated the family name, drug it through the gutter.
That boy had denigrated the village where he lived. And he was ashamed
to them.
And many thought that maybe the father ran to the son to protect him
from a hostile crowd. maybe to protect his son from a crowd that would
110 | P a g e

have stoned him on the spot. The father wanted to get to the son as
quickly as he could and wrap his arms around him.
Is that not what happened at the cross where Christ died in our place?
He took the punishment that should have come upon us and he took it
upon himself. Jesus came to pay a debt he did not owe because we owed
a debt we could not pay. So yes, you can return to the Lord, but let me
urge you to do it soon.
The devil's favorite word is tomorrow. God's favorite word is today. Today
is the day of salvation. The devil will say, "Do it another time, not right
now.” Because he knows the longer you put it off, the harder your heart
can get. The Bible says, "He who is often reproved will harden his heart
and he will be cut off and that without remedy." So, let me paraphrase
that. When you hear the gospel again and again and you don't respond
to it in the affirmative, your heart can get hardened. Sort of like the first
day you go outside barefoot in the summer and walk around, your feet
are so tender. But then if you walk barefoot a few days and then a few
weeks, they get tough. You get calloused and your heart can get
calloused.
And listen to this. The easiest place to get a hardened heart is in the
church. You might say, "Oh, no. The easiest place to get a hardened heart
would be, you know, living in sin." Well, yes, you could get a hardened
heart there, too. But if you hear the gospel and you don't respond to it,
you can become jaded. It's been said, the same son that softens the wax
hardens the clay. The same message that can liberate one person can
cause another to be hardened. That's why we need to always come with
an open, receptive heart to the word of God. Therefore, we want to get
back with the Lord as quickly as possible. He welcomes you with open
111 | P a g e

arms. Don't put it off. In fact, why don't you do it right now? Maybe you're
reading this and you're saying, "I need to get right with God, but I don't
know how. Can I help you?" Let me lead you in a simple prayer that you
can pray where you're asking Christ to come into your life. or if you're a
prodigal where you will be coming back to the Lord again. If you want
your sin forgiven, if you want a relationship with God, if you want to know
that when you die, you will go to heaven, pray
A prayer for salvation. You could pray it out loud if you like, but do pray
it. Let's pray right now. Just pray this.
Lord Jesus, I know that I'm a sinner, but I know that you're the savior who
died on the cross for my sin and rose again from the dead. I'm sorry for
my sin. I turn from my sin and I choose to follow you from this moment
forward.
Thank you for hearing my prayer and answering my prayer. In Jesus name
I ask this. Amen. Hey, if you just prayed that prayer, I want you to know
on the authority of God's word that God has heard you and he's
answered that prayer. First John says, "These things we write to you that
believe in the name of the son of God that you may know that you have
eternal life."
If you believe in God's son, you put your faith in him, you can know. It
doesn't say so you can feel you have eternal life or you can hope if God's
in a really good mood, maybe you'll have eternal life. know you can know
it if you prayed that prayer and meant it. You can know on the authority
of scripture that you are a child of God.

Coming back to the topic of ANTICHRIST. The Bible tells us in the last days
there's going (5) TO BE A WORLD FIGURE that will emerge on the stage.
He (5) IS GOING TO BE CHARISMATIC. (5) HE'LL PROBABLY BE VERY
ATTRACTIVE. (5) HE'LL PROBABLY BE VERY INTELLIGENT. he'll probably
(5) BE ON THE COVER OF (5) TIME MAGAZINE AND OTHER
PUBLICATIONS. There might even (5) BE BOOKS WRITTEN ABOUT HIM.
Who is THE ANTICHRIST? (7) A CHARISMATIC DECEIVER COVER OF TIME
MAGAZINE and GQ at the same time.

Think the devil wears product. He's going to be a man that will come with
temporary global solutions. In fact, the Bible even says OF THE
ANTICHRIST, "THROUGH (5) PEACE, HE WILL DECEIVE MANY." Some will
regard him as the (5) GREATEST PEACEMAKER OF ALL TIME. But in reality,
he'll be the (5) BIGGEST TROUBLEMAKER OF ALL TIME. (5) HE'S KNOWN
AS THE ANTICHRIST. (5) HE'S ALSO CALLED THE BEAST. HE'S (5) ALSO
CALLED THE WICKED ONE.
249 | P a g e

Listen to this. If SATAN had a (5) SON, THIS WOULD BE HIM. Yes, (5) A
WORLD FIGURE WILL COME on the (5) SCENE KNOWN AS THE
ANTICHRIST, and he will (7) INAUGURATE WHAT WE OFTEN CALL THE
TRIBULATION (7) PERIOD THAT WILL LAST FOR SEVEN YEARS. The last
three and half (7) YEARS ARE KNOWN AS “THE GREAT TRIBULATION”,
when (7) GOD POURS OUT HIS FINAL WRATH, UNDILUTED.
