Second death - resurrection at the end of the millennium; satan loosed - many follow him; Jesus only hath resurrection; Caiaphas prophesied unknowingly; one should die for the nation; Prophesy is not fortune/ future telling; Prophesy is rather a man speaking to men for God; sins make men unable to hear - ex. David & Nathan. History records that people kill men who speak for God.
We can only avoid deception by loving truth; not by memorizing the words of the bible.
Repent! Change! The Word of God can come from anyone i.e., a jackass, a drunk, preachers, strangers. Be careful how you hear;

The disciples, not knowing that Jesus meant that Lazarus was dead, thought only that he was resting in sleep. They said to Jesus:
“Lord, if he sleep, he shall do well.”
Then Jesus spoke plainly, saying to them:
“Lazarus is dead. And I am glad for your sakes that I was not there, to the intent ye may believe; nevertheless let us go unto him.”
Thomas, the disciple who was called Didymus, said:
“Let us go, that we may die with him.”
When Jesus arrived at Bethany, he found that Lazarus was dead and had been in his grave four days.
Because Bethany was near Jerusalem, about fifteen furlongs away, many Jews from that city had come to comfort Martha and Mary. When Martha heard that Jesus was approaching, she went out to meet him while Mary remained at home. She said:
