Exactly. This is all war on ground levels that most aren't prepared for. Thus why the TLR is a lowkey doom and gloom fest this year because nobody was spiritually prepared for this.
I remember one time, this smelly janitor at my past job (he was smelly because dude would piss himself but he went well), he gave me this book out of nowhere:
At the time I paid it no mind, giving that I wasn't in my right frame of perception. As time progress, things really started opening up to me on a spiritual level once I got saved. I started to see things clearer. Started to notice the ills of the world. And even fall back on certain elements of life. Most folks aren't mentally prepared for the trials and tribulations. Along with deception, soothsayers, and false prophets. Think about this, most of the talking heads that have podcast shows end up spewing misguided babble to deceive the sheep, because it's easier to degrade a mindset and take them to the cleaners, than help them understand the importance of knowledge of self.
You have folks treating Trump like a messiah, and fail to realize the cult of personality been a thing for quite some time, and always have the same ending...word to Hitler, Stalin, and so forth.
This is the part of the book where either folks that are lost find the truth out themselves, or face a sadden reality of losing all hope once the false prophet is revealed, the antichrist once again gets cast out, and the ending is just the beginning.
