Only as Related BY Jesus Christ Are Any Prophets Not of the LORD Called, in Matthew 24:24

The continued attempt by sTs to try and absorb Biblical truth in order to prove his vacillating position on Muslim(?) ideology calls to mind a couple of verses:

In Paul's second letter to the Thessalonians, verse 2:11 "And for this cause God will send them strong delusion that they should believe a lie:"

But even before that, we read of Jesus Christ's words, Matthew 24:24 "For false Christs will arise, and false prophets, and will show great signs and wonders; so that, if it were possible, they would deceive the very elect.

We are definitely in the times described by Jesus Christ as the period just prior to His appearance for judgment of unbelief in the world, and the extreme verbal defense put up by sTs (and others), based on very bad interpretations of a source he/they contend(s) is corrupt, (remember, he says that the alleged imperfections of the Holy Bible were introduced by Jewish sources), colors his source of creditability, which dries up faster than a drop of camel sweat in the middle of the Arabah.

It is no longer spiritually profitable to continue discourse with such deflections of truth. I am in the position now that Biblically speaking, he can continue in his own version of religious interpretation, but I must continue to take Jesus Christ at His Word, and not debate someone who cannot get the truth set straight, let alone be able to deal with incorrect imperceptions of his own beliefs. That is why this is posted here.
