Question
in the bible it is stated that thousands will be mislead. I think about this alot and what it means. Could you please offer your insight on this subject and who you believe the thousands are being referred to?
thank you
Dear Christi,
I am not sure as to what passage of Scripture you are referring. However, there are some that do speak of being deceived. Some by God, himself, for not desiring the truth.
2 Thessalonians 2:11-12 And for this cause GOD SHALL SEND
THEM STRONG DELUSION, THAT THEY SHOULD BELIEVE A LIE: (12)
That they all might be damned WHO BELIEVED NOT THE TRUTH,
but had pleasure in unrighteousness.
And, naturally, Satan is the great deceiver, as well as the false teachers, etc.
If this does not help you, please clarify your question.
Your Serv't in Christ Jesus,
Paul Walker

Expertise
The Bible contains an answer to all things necessary to life and salvation. We many times simple do not like the answer it gives. But, if your seeking the truth of God`s word, I can give my opinion and show from the Scriptures the basis for why I believe it is the correct interpretation of the Bible on most questions.

I have been a student of the Bible for over 25 years.
