In my intro to Neil Mackereth’s latest The Bandwagon of Deception – Swimming Against the Tide in a Sea of Lies I referred to having been “mulling over 2Thess 2:1-12 on the ‘strong delusion’ God is sending the new Archbishop of Wales before their reckoning”.
Then this morning I came across this item on Amir Tsarfati’s Behold Israel Telegram, but first let’s check the prophetic part of that terribly severe scripture in the New King James Version (all emphases mine). Although not yet applicable in timing, even so the Holy Spirit revealed principle of hatred against Truth must surely apply:
5 Do you not remember that when I was still with you I told you these things? 6 And now you know what is restraining, that he may be revealed in his own time. 7 For the [d]mystery of lawlessness is already at work; only [e]He who now restrains will do so until He is taken out of the way. 8 And then the lawless one will be revealed, whom the Lord will consume with the breath of His mouth and destroy with the brightness of His coming. 9 The coming of the lawless one is according to the working of Satan, with all power, signs, and lying wonders, 10 and with all unrighteous deception among those who perish, because they did not receive the love of the truth, that they might be saved. 11 And for this reason God will send them strong delusion, that they should believe the lie, 12 that they all may be condemned who did not believe the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness.

‘A short message from Amir:
A very dark and demonic cloud is covering the earth right now. We are witnessing the fulfilment of the biblical term “strong delusions”:
• Doctors now swear that a man can give birth.
• Minors who can’t vote or buy certain drinks are somehow deemed mature enough to decide to change their sex.
• Nations commit economic suicide in the name of “climate change” legislation.
• People join the world’s most oppressive religion in the name of freedom.
• Food is supplied to people who shelter and support terrorists and hide hostages.
• The very providers of food and aid are accused of committing genocide.
• A fake campaign of starvation circulates AI-generated images, photos from other countries, or pictures of genetically caused diseases — while the world’s media stays silent about the only adults truly being starved: the hostages held by these so-called starvation victims.
• Humanitarian aid distributed for free is called a “death trap,” yet those who hijack the free aid trucks and resell the supplies at exorbitant prices are hailed as heroes.
And now, 600 days after the largest terror attack in the modern history of the Middle East, the perpetrators are rewarded by Western governments with recognition as a state — a move that emboldened the terror group to walk away from a deal to release at least ten living hostages immediately.’

By the way, David Metcalf writes on the poignant idiocy of Western ‘leaders’:
‘On the very day the Arab states call on Hamass to release the hostages lay down their arms and leave Gazza. Up pops Starmer and Carney joining Macron in recognising a Palestinian State. Resulting in Hamass walking out of ceasefire talks, their unwanted interference will result in more unnecessary dead on both sides Idiots !’

Am amused that Old Testament patriarch Abram was only a couple of years younger than me when the Lord instructed him with a MIGHTY promise for the whole wide world. As written in the
