I have been hearing the term "snowflake" lately in reference to whinny baby Millennials and even the 1970's crowd.
It seems appropriate to me because of the nature of a snowflake.
Snowflakes are little tiny bodies of water that melt at the slightest increase in heat.
Snowflakes can not endure anything at all, less than a second in a warm hand will melt them instantly.
Thus we see a culture of snowflakes who rant and rage at the slightest correction or instruction that does not meet their personal desires or their elevated view of their own importance.
Snowflakes are people who will accept anyone who will promise them whatever they want, whether it's true or not, they live on cliche's and platitudes (platitude: a word or phrase used too often to be interesting any more.)
The anti-christ will promise peace and safety and the snowflakes, lacking discernment will believe him, follow him and when they wake up to what they have been deceived into, it will be too late, far too much damage will be done to recover.
The anti-christ will use flattery, promises of prosperity and other lies to lure in his victims, only those who have wisdom and godly understanding will know what he is really all about.
We have anti-christs among us right now, who appear to be
pre-cursers to the great deception. Promises, promising and promising, but only appearing to deliver, it's all an illlusion.
Prosperity preachers and politicians, today are doing this and many people are falling right in lock step with their deceptions. The targets are sending in their money hoping to become wealthy, healthy and beautiful just like the deceivers they follow. Even when it doesn't happen to them as promised they keep following them anyway, believing the lies and hoping for the payoff.
All we have to do is watch the prosperity preachers and the politicians, and their targets response to see what will happen when the anti-christ comes on the scene. The masses are nearly ready for him now, they fall in lock step with every new movie or book that comes out, they repeat meaningless phrases that they think are in the Bible but are antithetical to the Bible. Then they become angry when told their favorite cliche has no basis in Scripture.
Yes, born again believers already know what the last days deception will look like, they are living in a microcosm of it right now, every day we see it.
Matthew 24:24 "For false Christs and false prophets will arise and will show great signs and wonders, so as to mislead, if possible, even the elect."
1 Thessalonians 5:3-4 "3 While people are saying, “Peace and security,” destruction will come upon them suddenly, like labor pains on a pregnant woman, and they will not escape. 4 But you, brothers, are not in the darkness so that this day should overtake you like a thief.…"
