Deception is a form of truth to lead you away from the truth. Satan who is the father of lies (John 8:44), he knows and uses the truth (Matt. 4:6) but twists the truth by adding to the truth (2 Cor. 4:4 & 11:14) to blind mankind from the truth. The only way to see through the deception of the enemy is to have DISCERNMENT, which is knowing the difference between almost truth & ABSOLUTE truth. Islam teaches of 3 signs that will usher in the last days. What are these 3 signs and how is Christianity tied to these 3 signs?
