Hour of Temptation

[for_his_glory]

From the garden the serpents deception has been associated with the fruit of the knowledge of sin. The temptation found there was one of judgement, for the serpents goal is that your eyes are opened to sin so that you desire to sit upon the throne showing yourself to be god, judging between good and evil.

If you are to withstand the wiles of the devil during the hour of temptation, then you should not follow the serpents lead, standing behind the throne accusing the brethren of sin day and night. Judge not, lest you be judged...........

Know you not that God has concluded all under sin? Are you tempted of the law to stand in judgement over your brethren? Are you tempted to seek retribution or vengeance through accusation and public condemnation?

If you are to withstand the hour of temptation, then you should be clothed with the breastplate of righteousness so that you can practice righteous judgement: Forgive one another, as I have forgiven you...

Vengeance belongs to the Lord in all His righteous judgements. All we are allowed to judge are the fruits of another whether they be the fruits of the Spirit or fruits of sin. If one feels they are being tempted then they should realize the one who is tempting them is Satan as he works through those who are self righteous.

The Hour of Temptation as God has revealed it to me.
The Hour of Temptation is not only for the Christian belief, but for all religions of the world. It is during this time that the Great Falling Away happens. People from every Faith in the entire world will be falling away from their belief in any God.
The Seven Year Tribulation Period starts, the two witness show up, the world is in chaos. Mountains are brought low, oceans are disappearing, the poles shift, Asteroieds hit the Earth, and the Earth wobbles in its orbit.

After all this begins and Jesus did NOT come as MOST Christians of this generation falsely believe He should have, will fall away from their Faith, thinking they have believed a lie their whole lives (forgetting about all those who tried to tell them it was a lie). And it does not help that the antichrist is on TV saying "Where is your God now?" Which unites all people under one banner, his banner of Atheism. ALL religions fall away from their Faith, that is to say they are Tempted to fall away from their belief in any God whatsoever. And since all the destruction that comes upon the whole Earth, its easy to believe there must not be any God. This generation gets a boil on their butt and think "Woe is me, why has God forsaken me" And do you think they will turn to God if they have 50 boils on them? The generation that will be present for the Hour of Temptation will all be tested even as Job was tested, Many, and i say MANY will fall away from their belief in God.

NONE of what i said above is contrary to any Scriptures, only contrary to the truths you hold on to.
