World War 3 is at Hand
While we wait for Iran's annihilation and its regime change, let's check our own Christian faith, doctrine and knowledge of Him and His words.
Dan 12:10 "Many shall be purified, made white, and refined, but the wicked shall do wickedly; and none of the wicked shall understand, but the wise shall understand."
These new converts came to the saving knowledge of the Lord only recently (I estimate World War 3 to last for 6 months or so). All this while they have been seeing miracles after miracles of healing, provision, deliverance and empowering just like in the days of Exodus.
Note: Though the Israelites following Moses saw miracles after miracles, yet, when they were tested they were faithless and rebellious. Contrasting with the Israelites who were taught the word of God for 40 years in the wilderness who were strong and courageous in the conquest of Canaan land with Joshua.
many shall be purified, made white, and refined
I Pet 4:1-2 Therefore, since Christ suffered for us in the flesh, arm yourselves also with the same mind, for he who has suffered in the flesh has ceased from sin, that he no longer should live the rest of his time in the flesh for the lusts of men, but for the will of God.
Until Rapture (time of the end for Christians), our merciful and loving Father will always allow pains, persecutions, imprisonments, punishments, sufferings and tortures to refine the weak brethren so that they can eventually overcome the temptations of this world and that of Satan.
Dan 11:35b refine them, purify them, and make them white, until the time of the end
the wicked shall do wickedly; and none of the wicked shall understand
Immediately after World War 3, the Antichrist (as the angel of light) and his demonic forces will search and rescue war victims. Having form the 'One World Order', he will register all survivors so that food, medical, and other help can be extended to them.
The Antichrist will also feed and provide jobs to match the people's skills and abilities. They will be recruited for the recovery and reconstruction of damaged towns, cities, factories, farmlands, schools, etc. Houses or apartments near their places of work will be distributed to each family.
Unfortunately, among those miraculously saved in World War 3, there will always be those who do not love Him nor His words nor His truth. During the war, these faithless new converts enjoy the comfort, food and miracles but refuse to understand and keep Jesus' words so that they will know His truth.
These faithless, stiff-necked, rebellious and covetous so-called Christians (wicked), who, for the sake of financial benefits will fall, and submit to the One World Order because they are without the truth of God's words in them.
These will later become the false prophets and false Christs to deceive Christians to worship the Antichrist seated in the temple and to take the mark of the beast.
Overcome Satan with Truth
2 The 2:9-10 The coming of the lawless one is according to the working of Satan, with all power, signs, and lying wonders, and with all unrighteous deception among those who perish, because they did not receive the love of the truth, that they might be saved.
The ulterior motive of Satan is to obliterate our faith in the Lord and His words. He will muster all powers, signs and lying wonders to bring about the destruction of God's people.
He frequently tempts us with heresies and the love for things of the world. As a result, many carnal Christians and their leaders who do not love Him nor His truth will fall. They will be cast into the eternal damnation for refusing to heed His commands.
Only Jesus can keep you from Stumbling
Jude 1:24-25 Now to Him who is able to keep you from stumbling, and to present you faultless before the presence of His glory with exceeding joy, to God our Savior, Who alone is wise, be glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and forever. Amen.
