or as the Living Bible renders this verse, ' travel shall be vastly increased'

When u consider that people's means of transportation - horse and buggy, wagons, camels, sailboats etc. did nt change substantially for thousands of years until just over one hundred years ago, you can appreciate the significance of this prophecy. Today we drive and fly at speeds unimaginable to our ancestors.

' In the time of the end...knowledge shall increase'

It is with good cause that the term 'information overload'

was coined in recent years. Consider these facts: Every minute 2,000 pages are added to man's scientific knowledge. Every day, the equivalent of hundreds of millions of pages of text are sent over the internet. The most basic building block of computer technology, the transistor, was invented only 50 years ago.

There are now wris ches that wield more computing ability than some 1970s mainframe computers. Ordinary cars today have 'intelligence'

than the original lunar lander. Human knowledge is currently doubling approximately every eight years. At that rate, by the time a child born today would be 50 years old, 97 percent of everything known im the world would have been learned in his lifetime. SYMPATHY FOR THE DEVIL. The Holy Spirit clearly says that in later! times some will abandon the faith and follow deceiving spirits and things taught by demons. 1 Timothy 4:1 - In Jesus'discourse about the signs that would precede His return,

three times He told His disciples that numerous false prophets would arise on the world scene, and that they would attract huge followings. (Matthew 24:5,11,24.) Of course, the devil doesn't always show himself to be the evil and destructive force that he is. Quite the contrary. He and his agents frequently portray themselves as messengers of light and goodness: (2 Corinthians 11:14-15)

' Satan himself transforms himself into an angel of light. Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also transform themselves into ministers of righteousness'

He is the arch-deceiver. Not only are many people unknowningly falling for Satan's deceptions, but increasing numbers are following rank satanism. Witchcraft is flourishing to the point where it's being called a 'renaisance in witchcraft'

and open schools in witchcraft have been founded. The most shameless acts of blasphemy and desecration are now socially acceptable in the name of audio-visual entertainment and 'freedom of expression'
