Jesus had just left the temple for the last time. His disciples asked him two questions about the end. His first word in response was not a timeline, or a sign. It was a warning. Before anything else – before wars, famines, or earthquakes – He said: Take heed that no man deceive you. That was not an accident.

The Tui Bei Tu has outlasted emperors, purges, and censorship for 1,400 years. So has scripture. That is not a coincidence. That is a pattern. And patterns are exactly what prophecy is for.
Authenticity Unveiled | When the Serpent Wears Robes
The serpent didn’t deny God outright in the garden. He added to his words, reframed them, and used them to serve a different agenda entirely.
