In the interpretation of King Nebuchadnezzar's famous dream, we saw the "stone cut without hands" strike the image at its feet and become a "mountain" which filled the 14 aoa we 1 1 aca coat whole earth. Strange as it may seem, this "stone" is a commonly employed idiom for the Messiah.*”! As we previously reviewed, it will be in the days of this final empire that the Messiah intervenes and establishes his reign upon the earth. Even among many ostensible Christians, this will be doubted: "Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts, and saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation" (2 Peter 3:3-4). (Note how this skepticism is linked with the theory of evolution. Both views deny the involvement of the Creator in his program from the beginning to the end.) 12:10). Even secular researchers have concluded that the UFOs and their occupants are demonic. Their message reveals their reality and their agenda. They deal in deception, they are part of an ultimate deception of cosmic proportions, and you are one of their ultimate targets! Are you prepared? Or are you a sitting duck? The strange reports reviewed in this book are only a prologue. The cosmic (spiritual) battle is going to become increasingly visible. The strange entanglements of the Heaven's Gate cult and other groups are only a beginning.

Jesus anticipated this. He said, "Wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in there at; but strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it" (Matthew 7:13- 14). Are you going to be among those few? Or among the many? If you are going through a popular gate, you may have chosen the wrong one! The mystery of death throws shadows over even the most care-free human life. None of us is truly indifferent to the possible issues concerning our personal eternity. The fall and eternal ruin of an immortal spirit is the most dreadful tragedy imaginable. Yet, God's mercy is unobligated and sovereign: 186 how has it been fulfilled to date, and what is on the horizon! It is time for each of us to rediscover the Bible and do our own homework!
