Understanding the “Falling Away” Before the Antichrist is Revealed – A Deep Dive into This Important Prophecy – Which Includes YOU!

Posted Sept 23, 2025 | End Times Watch | River Wilde

As I study the scriptures, I have been made aware that we are sitting on the doorstep of the 7-year peace agreement being signed with Israel, and thus revealing the antichrist.

I am also very aware of this scripture:

2 Thessalonians 2:3 (KJV):

“Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;”

I also understand fully that this “Falling Away” has not completely been fulfilled, causing me to think that there must be something big coming between now and when the antichrist is revealed in this peace agreement. I was wrong with this conclusion. When is this falling away prophesied to happen?  Let’s dig deeper:

Just reading the next scripture gives us great clarity.

2 Thessalonians 2:4 (KJV):

“Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.”

The falling away and the revealing of the man of sin are directly linked.

Paul does not tie the falling away to a covenant signing (Daniel 9:27).

Instead, it is tied to the moment the Antichrist sits in the temple claiming to be God.

So then, this falling away will occur prior to the 3.5-year mark of the Abomination of Desolation, not when he is introduced as the new leader from the signing of the 7-year peace agreement with Israel.

Furthermore, we can acknowledge that the antichrist will be key is creating this great deception, causing many to fall away from Jesus Christ. This makes perfect sense to me now.

This also raises a HUGE RED FLAG to all Christians. You and Me are going to be in a position where deception will be so great that it will cause MANY to fall away from Jesus Christ. Can you process that for just a moment?

YES, we will see the 7-year peace agreement signed soon.

YES, we will meet the antichrist.

YES, we will be involved in his attempts to deceive US into falling away from Jesus Christ!

Knowing this…What is our plan? Do you have one? How are you going to prepare you and your family from falling away from Christ?

I believe that through all of the prophecy writings that God has provided to us in the Bible, this might just be the most important one for us to consider.

Let’s continue learning about the depts of this deception which is to come.

The Bible warns that the deception surrounding the end-times man of sin (Antichrist) will be extremely powerful, even affecting the elect if it were possible. Here are the key KJV passages:

Matthew 24:24

“For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.”

• Key points:
  • False miracles and wonders will accompany the deception.
  • The deception is so convincing that even believers could be misled if God allowed it.

2 Thessalonians 2:9–10

“Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.”

• Key points:
  • The Antichrist’s appearance will be backed by satanic power.
  • Lying wonders and miracles will enhance his ability to deceive.
  • Those who reject the truth will be especially vulnerable.

Revelation 13:13–14

“And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men, And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do…”

• Key points:
  • Public, undeniable signs will be used to deceive the world.
  • The deception is global and dramatic.

The Bible portrays this deception as massive, world-wide, and extremely convincing, capable of fooling nearly everyone except those firmly rooted in the love of truth.

So, I again ask you… What is your plan so that you will not be deceived? Perhaps I can help you with this.

First, and foremost, you have accomplished the very first step towards avoiding this deception. You are AWARE of what is coming. You KNOW what to expect, so when these things happen, you will KNOW that it is DECEPTION, and a way that the antichrist will pull people away from Christ. I encourage you to even study more inadept of these deceptions.

As an “assignment,” study Project Blue Beam to see the depth of what might occur. There is information online that gives us hints of the deception that is being planned. Study, and see things with an open mind, not to know what will happen for sure, but to get an idea of the deception which could happen.

I think that with the advancement of AI, we can all agree that sometimes we can not even trust our eyes as to what we really see. Deception has now become a key task that we need to factor in with our daily life.

Secondly, we must all include God in prayer each day that we will always see truth. God’s help is key in seeing through deception.

Third, we should spend time each day filling our mind with the truth as found in the Bible, as well as music that is uplifting, drawing us closer to our creator. These truths that we take in can assist in pushing out darkness that might be trying to wiggle into our minds.

Forth, Spend time with members of “Christ’s Church.” Those who follow Christ are on the same team as we are. Associating with like minded people is helpful. This can be done at our churches, or through social media.

Fifth, Look for opportunities to assist others in their journey. There are MANY people who are sitting on the fence right now, and have not committed to following Jesus Christ. Introduce the concept of prayer to them in helping them find peace in this troubling time. This is a great first step in getting to know God, and understanding why we need Him in our life.

And finally, consider the comfort and direction in following the words of Matthew:

Matthew 11:28–30 (KJV):

28. “Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.

29. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.

30. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.”

Are we yoked up to the Savior? The process is easy:

Acknowledge your need for Him and surrender your life.

Commit to follow His teachings and guidance.

Embrace a disciple’s heart—humble, teachable, and willing to change.

Depend on the Holy Spirit for guidance, wisdom, and discernment.

Fellowship with other believers and support one another.

If you have not done this, do so today. Then just as the term “Yolk” means, we are connected to Christ as we go forth in our journey. When we can not give but only 5%, the Savior will push forward in providing the other 95% for us to accomplish the task at hand. Being yoked is us at 100% due to the Saviors strength.

So, this will be our plan. Help others in understanding what is coming, and how they can prepare. I pray that you might find the strength needed to push through the deception that is coming.
