Welcome to our ongoing discussion of Dave Hunt’s book Occult Invastion: The Subtle Seduction of the World and Church. The Bible is very clear that there will come a time when the entire world will submit to a world leader, one who will be empowered by occult abilities (powers, lying signs and wonders) for the purpose of deceiving the masses and subjecting them to his absolute control. Second Thessalonians 2 and other scriptures lay this out quite clearly. But this doesn’t happen overnight; there has to be some preparation, and that’s what your book addresses. You’re simply documenting the preparation that’s been taking place, and today we’re going to talk about this preparation with regard to the occult seduction of our youth. But I think it might be helpful if we provide our listeners with some biblical background for understanding what’s taking place.
