Masquerade: Prepare for the Greatest con Job in History
Think of the young people who are being raised during our own prophetic times. Consider the institutions of education, entertainment, “science,” information and communication technology, and even “the church,” that have been distorted and/or completely usurped by the demonic realm. Contemplate the sheer deluge of the “doctrines of demons” that continues to pour forth upon humanity from all these sources. And think of the younger citizens of this planet who have only known this kind of diabolical fakery — for their entire lives. Is there any wonder that so much confusion reigns across the planet? What kind of world-to-come is being created by this torrent of filth and fraud? The Bible gives us the answer. It’s all hurtling toward the kingdom reign of the man of lawlessness. The deception continues to unfold before us — every single day. It commenced, ages ago, with a steady drip, drip, drip. Then it eventually evolved into a rapidly flowing stream. Then it blossomed into a raging river. Now it’s bearing down upon us like a devastating tsunami. And much of today’s church is sound asleep as it approaches. In MASQUERADE you • Witness the unveiling some of the grandest mysteries of God’s Word. • Read the firsthand account about a stunning end times’ “vision” that is currently sweeping the planet and changing lives for the Kingdom. • In the theater of your mind, walk with Jesus and His disciples along the shores of Galilee during a particularly revelatory time of His ministry. Sit spellbound, in a synagogue service and witness Jesus’ glorious presence there. • Discover the long-veiled truth of how the Matthew chapter 13 “Kingdom parables” are directly and specifically connected to our day. • Understand how those very same parables are also contextually connected to Paul’s 2 Thessalonians’ prophecies of the last days and the rise of the antichrist. • Discover the stunning reality about Paul’s 2 Thessalonians 2:4 “Temple of God,” and how it contextually connects to Jesus’ Matthew 13 prophetic message. • Learn the vital difference between the inner church and the outer church and the impact this last days’ truth has on our own prophetic times. • Uncover what the Bible genuinely reveals about Satan. (This is not your typical Sunday-School version) • Discover the major gateways to demonic infestations – and how to affect true deliverance from the addictions that follow. • Dive headlong into the biblical, scientific, and experiential connections between the demonic realm, UFOs, and the potential last day’s deception involved. • Discover what demons can do, and what they cannot do. • Discover if demons can manifest as humans in the same way that an angel might appear to us. • The Bible says that Satan can masquerade as an angel of light. Does that mean he can appear in human form as well? • Find out what the Bible means when it says that certain angels left their former “estate” or “habitation.” • Rip off the masks of Satan’s agenda, and be infused with a renewed resolve to courageously advance the Kingdom work of Jesus Christ!

COULD DEMONIC DECEPTIONS IN THE LAST DAYS APPEAR TO BE UFOs?
Author Carl Gallups wrote in the ‘Word from the Author’ section of this 2020 book, “This book… peels back Satan’s most diabolical masks and charades, ultimately exposing the most overwhelming con job in human history… I heavily reference my postulations with reliable scholarly sources… I often make liberal use of the writings of classical scholars… Yet, a number of these vital biblical truths have disappeared from many of our pulpits and Bible studies. You might find yourself asking along the way, ‘Why have I never been told these things before?’… By the time you’ve finished reading the last pages of this book, not only will you have a much clearer understanding of what the enemy is up to, but you will have also been encouraged and profoundly strengthened. There is even an addendum that offers biblical counsel and resources for healing for those caught in some of Satan’s deadliest webs of deceit and despair."
He states, “Even the earliest church was not immune to the diabolical offensive launched by the unseen realm. In fact, the attack started almost the moment the church was first conceived. Jesus … cautioned that the phenomenon would grow worse as the earth draws closer to His return. A massive demonic inundation, unlike anything humanity has ever witnessed, would be unleashed across the globe in the very last days. A number of prophecy watchers believe we are at least in the beginning stages of those days right now. But here’s the diabolical thing about those days: The flood of the demonically driven permeation will be camouflaged in such a way that most of the visible church will miss it entirely.” (Pg. 44)
He explains, “I assure you that… I’m not going to get into the mechanics of a particular scheme of eschatology. There will be no date-setting, Rapture-timing, or end-of-days predictions in these pages. I will not bring forth charts, graphs, timelines, or maps. That’s simply not what this book is about. I can also promise that there’s much more to our excursion than this first theological mystery that we’ll clear up [later]…” (Pg. 51)
He notes, “the fear of a major global war over the issue of a rebuilt third temple is so great that now there is even a brand-new movement among the orthodox minority who still insist they want a new temple. They claim they can build it in a location other than what is known as the Temple Mount and maintain that they have NEW EVIDENCE of another site that might have been the ‘real’ location of the original. Do you see the problem? With more than 75 percent of Israel’s current population flatly opposed to a rebuilt temple… and another sizable group of the remaining minority not quite sure WHERE the temple should be built in the first place, the stark reality appears to be that this monumental undertaking would be next to impossible to accomplish anytime soon. The current geopolitical ramifications of such a project are too complex and controversial---and extremely dangerous.” (Pg. 55)
He states, “We are the first generation in history to be directly involved in the fulfillment of that prophecy, a prophecy spoken from the mouth of Jesus Christ Himself. We’re also the first generation to have the technologies of instantaneous global communications and information systems that assist us in its actualization. As a matter of fact, we see the truth of the sower parable every day. In the midst of the gospel message being sown to the nation, the demonic influence is right there, gobbling up as much of the gospel seed as possible.” (Pg. 89-90)
He argues, “The ‘visible church’ of America is already in a self-confessed and prophesied state of decay. For the first time in our storied history, there is now a statistically verified absence of a genuine biblical world-view among our population. It’s vanishing right before our eyes… out of the 75 percent of Americans who claim to be Christians (the visible church), only 10 percent affirm that they hold a biblical view of life. That small percentage, according to Jesus, is the genuine CHURCH…” (Pg. 109-110)
He summarizes, “Thus far, we’ve uncovered several of Satan’s most prominent and devastating charades. First, there is the mask of the ‘temple of God,’ whereby Satan keeps the outward institutional church in a state of spiritual stupor while he infiltrates it and corrupts it to the very core… Then, there are the masks of long-established caricatures: a walking, talking snake, a flying dragon, impish creatures with pitchforks---cartoon-like representations of Satan and the demonic realm. And we certainly must not forget the misnomer ‘Lucifer’---the ‘shining, bragging, obnoxious one.’” (Pg. 148)
He asserts, “I’m going to present a few of the everyday elements of our lives that have a healthy dose of fakery at their core… For example, our current fallen ‘shadow-world’ is filled with fake intelligence (AI), fake people (robots), and fake security (ubiquitous spy technology)… Heck, we even gulp down fake foods… with hardly a thought (GMOs, artificial additives, etc.). But we’re not finished. There are fake robotic priests, fake marriages, fraudulent genders, and tons of FAKE SCIENCE (pseudoscience): man-made global warming, accidental-explosion-to-humanity ‘evolution’… males being ‘turned into’ females (and vice versa) and so forth…. Another disturbing technology upon us is the field of ‘deepfake’ media applications. This is a nightmare scenario wherein video and audio clips can be created to look and sound like ANYONE we wish to mimic… the claim is that this new technology might soon be utterly impossible to distinguish from reality… We haven’t mentioned fake news, fake documents, fake currency, and fake identities. What about fake and manipulated elections?” (Pg. 160-161)
He says, “never before in history have each of those markers of humanity’s depravity---demonic intrusion, substance abuse, wild sexual perversion, murder, and thievery---been so ubiquitous… Their inclusion in the Book of Revelation indicates that they are prophetic indicators, specifically meant for the very last-days generation…. How is it … that so much of the church misses this sign? It’s because the church has been fooled. Beguiled.” (Pg. 242)
He asks, “Did God create intelligent life on other planets? If so, would these intelligent entities be behind what humans call UFO visitations?... if we stay strictly with what the Bible says, there is no direct mention whatsoever of intelligent life having been created on other planets. However, that is not to say that God couldn’t have done such a thing… I consider it a highly unlikely prospect simply because of the lack of biblical information to the contrary… we are left with the question about UFOs … or stranger yet, about the reports of aliens that have allegedly abducted a number of humans over the last decades.” (Pg. 267-268)
He suggests, “What in the world could so thoroughly impress today’s global population… that those duped ones would collectively experience something that would cause their ‘hearts to fail’ (Lk 21:26)? And how could the delusion be so plausible that even a number of God’s own people could come close to being fooled by it?... What illusion could be so powerful that whoever is still here at the time would gladly worship a singular man as some sort of GOD (Revelation 13), in order to be delivered from the perceived calamity that is about to befall them?” (Pg. 289-290)
He says of UFO manifestations, “They are a force that has coexisted with us throughout history… They are interdimensional and not really from our own physical universe. Most important, they are DEMONIC in origin… I’m not categorically insisting that the great deception of the last days will prove to be some sort of a literal UFO/demonic deception. It could well be that the demonic con job … will far surpass even that likelihood. Regardless, the final deception will be awe inspiring and decidedly demonic in its origin.” (Pg. 295-297)
This book will appeal to some Evangelicals interested in biblical prophecy.

Just wish he would use "nickle" words rather than "50 centers". It's so easy to use words that everyone can understand. This has been my pastor method for years. Also, I don't necessarily agree with some of his theories, especially about the third Jewish Temple. Probably won't be reading any more of his works. By the way, I have been a law enforcement officer also.
