In order for Satan to deceive the entire world, he must enlist many deceivers to join him in his evil schemes.
Titus 1:10-11 For there are many rebellious men, empty talkers and deceivers, especially those of the circumcision, who must be silenced because they are upsetting whole families, teaching things they should not teach for the sake of sordid gain.
Here we read that there are many deceivers who teach error. We also read that one of their motives is money, sordid money. It is sordid because they have evil motives and lead people to Hell rather than to Heaven.
2 John 1:7 For many deceivers have gone out into the world, those who do not acknowledge Jesus Christ as coming in the flesh. This is the deceiver and the antichrist.
Again we read that many have gone out or are out. As they teach lies and do not acknowledge that Jesus is truly the long promised Messiah, they are against Him or antichrist.
2 Timothy 3:13 But evil men and impostors will proceed from bad to worse, deceiving and being deceived.
Some of these false teachers and preachers know exactly what they are doing, while others are deceived even as they deceive. Every part of our world today is both deceived and deceiving. Not one part of our society today exemplifies truth. The rush to irradicate God from all public life is proof of the power of Satan’s schemes to deceive.
